Good Dads That Will Make You Smile

First calf for this heifer! She calved easily basically 'spat' it out! Much better than us tugging on it! 50 heifers to go. Hope they are all as easy!

End of a long day. Relaxing watching heifers and their first calves. I am blessed. Pulled 3 calves this season. 1 dead curly leg and breach, 1 dead breach, 1 alive and doing well! 3 sets of twins with 2 now on nurse cows while the third is a sneak thief stealing from the mama cows until we can catch it! Life has a rhythm here that city folks kinda miss. 2/19/19

Feeding in August. Two inches rain will help but need more. Praying!

Discovered this while walking W/O the dogs! Incredibly still it waits for us to leave. June and July are heavy fawning periods in south texas.

Setting a new blind out. This blind isnt going any where when your bro works for a metal business.

The Butcherbird strikes again! These hunter birds are fascinating to me. South Texas is a major flyway for a number of northern birds. Most Loggerhead Strike spend the summer in the far North nesting and growing strong for their Autumn voyage south to Texas. This bird is still here or already here. I've not seen it but here is the evidence. 8/9/19

Its so beautiful on the ranch where I live and work! Love south Texas!

The boss lady leading 2 nurse cows and 6 orphans with feed! Beautiful day!

Come on Rain!

Major Alaa Waheeb, the IDF’s most decorated Muslim soldier who received the Minister of Defense’s Medal of Excellence - “To those who say that Israel is an apartheid state, I ask: Do you think that such a country would tolerate a person like myself getting to the position I am today?… a non-Jewish army Major? Someone who has not only fought alongside Jewish soldiers, but now trains them too? Would a truly racist state allow me to play such an integral role in our nation’s defenses? I do not serve in the army to kill people – I serve in it to save people. When Hamas fires rockets, or Fatah encourages stabbings, we are here to protect the lives of all Israeli citizens, Jewish and non-Jewish… In my role as a soldier, I have met all kinds of people both in Israel and the Palestinian territories. Jews, Arabs, Religious, secular, left-wing and right-wing… forget slogans and shouting. Peace – real peace – will only come when people talk to each other.”
