This morning I was pleasantly surprised to find a tiny new addition to our bison herd.
I first noticed something was different when I spotted the calf's head poking up through the grass. Initially, I wasn't sure if I was imagining the calf was there, but then the calf stood up. |
The mother turns out to be No. 1. |
At one point the calf decided to do some exploring, but mom stayed close behind it. |
It doesn't wander too much though before returning to its mother. |
The mother, still passing the afterbirth in this photograph, is extremely nervous about me being around. The closest I could get was 200 meters. |
