Friday the 13th. BUT… it’s going to be a great day - I saw a white buffalo!! It was Faith; the white calf that was born in Lolo a couple of years ago. She is currently residing with the small herd of heifers just down the road from my house. I had to stop to get a couple of photos but she was walking away from me, so I got a nice shot of a white buffalo butt… However, now that I know where she is, I can wander down there to get some better shots. I’m pretty sure she’ll be there at least until late summer (??), and it seems like maybe early mornings would be best - at least that’s when I’ve often see the herd closer to the road, so I'll have to keep checking!
First stock dog trial of the year, and I was talking to someone near the holding pens. I started to turn around and almost stepped on a little tiny lamb! It walked right up to me, sniffing at me and I petted him. Then he walked over to a bottle that was lying on the ground and was trying to chew on it. It was half full of milk, so I picked it up and the lamb was trying desperately trying to get it. I held it up and he drank it all down - he was hungry! A little later Jim put it into the pen with the other lambs, and there was one ewe with twins; one black and one white. The little brown lamb attached itself to that black ewe, so now he has siblings and a mama.
