Just Because I am NOT a Fawn... :) by Terri Yu

Sat, 07 Jun 2008 03:58:01 MST

River was playing with many young fawns of my "dam" and I was taking photos and suddenly this young calf got up from her "sun-warmed" resting grass and put herself in front of my lens, as if to say, "Just because I am NOT a fawn, it doesn't mean that I am not camera-worthy!" And "worthy" she is! :)

My Favorite Doe by Terri Yu

We got to know this doe really well last fall and she gave us many gorgeous pictures of herself. We met her new children of this spring and River became fast friends (just like last year) with the fawns. And she is just as pretty and proud!

The pretty fawn became "one" with the grass in the setting sun light.

Our young friend the fawn came out of the shadow of the woods to say a big "hello"!

From River's Perspective :) by Terri Yu

I realized that from River's perspective those cows must be gigantic as the little calf was four times her size already. :)

"Come eat with me, my child!" :) by Terri Yu

The cow was ever so patient with my scared dog River, who first had her "hunter stance" (which the cow imitated), then put herself down on her back to show submission to the HUGE being compared to herself and eventually she settled in staying "down" while the cow faced her and waited, waited, and then waited some more, finally River got up and followed her in some "grass eating", becoming a "cow-dog", just like last summer, when she became a deer fawn, except the event of her identifying with fawns was a lot less "dramatic" and fearful for her. :)

Imitating River :) by Terri Yu

River was a bit scared of cows as she is more used to deer, foxes, coyotes and other wild animals. At the point of encountering this big cow, she did her "hunter stance" and the mother-cow thought that was a gesture befitting her, so she did a "River imitation". :)

"Look at my eye lashes!" by Terri Yu

My calf "insisted" that her long eye lashes was worth noticing! :)

Me Pretty :) by Terri Yu

The little calf knew she was pretty and adorable so she stayed still for her first portrait.
