Bessie and her baby

I don’t know why they call them “Bessie”, but Bessie and her baby live on the back road out of my subdivision. I see them some mornings.

  1. Bessie is such a traditional name for a cow. You triggered a memory of my grandfather’s two work horses, named Bill and Dan. I wonder if those were traditional names for horses 60 years ago?

  2. The baby reminds me of a pet calf I once had. The mother was dry so “Beauty” became mine; I was 8 years old. Would feed her milk 3 times a day. She soon learned to eat grain/grass but didn’t grow. Never got as big as the beautiful calf in the picture. Cows are so neat. Your beautiful photo captures it all!
