Description

The lookout on duty. The cow birds sure seem to like this calf. At times there are many going for a ride on his back.

I was filling the water trough and saw these cow birds. They are around all the time but I never seem to have a camera at the right time. This time they hung around long enough for me to get a shot. They seem to like this calf over the others and he seem to like them too..LOL.. #1268787

Cute capture, Denny -- the cows probably like them because they keep flies and other bugs off! #8611570

If it is a little cool, the black one will be warmer in the sun. I grew up on the farm and these birds will keep the fly of their back. #8611889

What great captures Denny! I wonder if it is the warmth of the black one, or there is better food there, that attracts the birds? #8611898
