Cattle and horses

Thursday it was time to move cattle from the middle pasture to the south pasture.  The last few times one of the cattle was off on its own and I had to go get it before letting the herd through the gate.  This time the opposite was true - one of the cattle already was in the south pasture.  It had broken a wire in the fence and crawled through.


The rest of the herd patiently waited by the gate to be let through.


In the south pasture.

My weed spraying efforts the past few years paid off.  Hard to find the remaining weeds in the north pasture.


Usually I worry about animals breaking out of the corral.  The horses broke the fence from the outside.  Why?  I don't know.




Happy 4th of July everyone!
