Hey John,

If you check the guidelines about what should be posted in the Fauna Gallery you'll see:
Photos that include domesticated animals should be posted in the Man & Nature Gallery.

So I took the liberty of moving your images over to the Man & Nature Gallery - hope you don't mind...

View guidelines here:http://www.naturephotographers.net/naturephotos/wildlifephotography.html

Cheers...

Brad

Very sweet interaction between mom and child. Was the calf just born?

Hi Sally,

The calf was born a little earlier and still hadn't gotten her walking legs. i was hesitant to photgraph it earlier due to the fact that it was on an Amish farm and I know that they do not want to be photographed, so I waited until I saw the farmers wife and got permission to come on the property with my camera. It was exciting just to watch the interaction.
