~re-entry - Nature and Landscapes as we were miles from nowhere~
Hundreds of dewdrops to greet the dawn,
Hundreds of bees in the purple clover,
Hundreds of butterflies on the lawn,
But only one mother the wide world over.
~George Cooper
I heard a cow bellowing so stopped to look and saw a calf trot up. She greeted it then he suckled for almost ten minutes.... I was
touched by the bond and look of such pleasure on her face.. ~Pat and Graham

This will remain one of your fond memories of your last trip, Pat! A wonderful autumn morning scene, beautifully captured!
Happy Birthday for yesterday! #1265479

Thankyou so much John!!! A lovely memory! You can see the look of delight on the mothers face.

If only I could have got up closer but they were a fair distance away.

Thankyou for the birthday wishes John! I uploaded this shot about a fortnight ago and just enterred it when I was away.

I tend to do this, get a few up there for times when I cannot upload or a slow line when we are away.
