Our grand-daughter helping with farm chores. Some call it manual labor...We call it learning responsibility and having fun. :D

One of the coolest frogs I've ever seen. The brown was literally copper color with sparkles in it.

Pretty. I don't think that I would get that close to my cattle. :)

I understand Glenmar. We each have different situations don't we? Our cattle are handled on a daily basis. Brushed or petted, fed out of a little grain bucket, at the very least talked to. Something to keep them semi-hands on when need be. The black on you see standing off is standing off because he is not so trusting of children. But he was too nosey not to come take a look and see what was going on. The rest of the herd are all nosey and wanted to see if perhaps what ever we were doing involved FOOD! :D

Thanks for sharing! What's up with that poor baby in a washtub? In my neck of the woods we use the turkey roaster at that age:lol:.

Nice photos, I think the frog is a pickerel frog.

Things are really mooooving on the farm.

Every farm needs some good supervisors right?

The farmer is making a retaining wall that will be the back wall to the cows cooling shelter.

And the pigs finally arrived.

And what are those white things near the sand pile? Oh yes...more supervisors!
