Hiding In Plain Sight

Our 4/19/17 calf Dial, has been growing steadily and enjoys being right in the middle of the herd.

The other day I noticed Dial away from most of the cows, it looked like she was trying to hide in a clump of trees. near some old stumps. These happened to be seedlings that we had planted along the ditch that runs to the river. The seedlings were planted at the same time we were filling in plants in the riparian area.

The plants were not harmed in anyway by the little visitor, in fact she left a little fertilizer for the trees before she left.
