On my way to the gym this morning I passed a field containing some cattle, including a few calves. On my way home I stopped to investigate and noticed this particularly pretty, dappled grey, calf near the fence. It was rather shy and kept hiding from me but I managed to catch this shot while we played peekaboo together from either side of the gate!

Wonderful capture Helen. Ryana · 2010-09-13: 09:14

I love calves and their sweet faces! This one is particularly pretty, Helen. You really caught the beauty of it's eye and the nice swirls in the coat, plus the clarity of the nose whiskers. Really a great shot in b/w! djnana · 2010-09-13: 09:23

So, suggesting an amendment of your title to "please don't stare, I'm sirloin" is not going to make me any friends here, I assume. Sorry, she is very cute. revenant · 2010-09-13: 10:29
