Tonight Mike and I were on a walk at Rockefeller Preserve. We were walking by the cows in the pasture pictured above. We noticed a cow and a calf standing away from the others, and they were right next to the fence. I first thought the cow was eating "pie", but then we realized that she was eating placenta. Then we looked at the calf, and there was a bloody remains of an umbilical cord on its belly. Apparently we just missed the birth. I can not believe that we happened upon the newborn event. Congratulations Cow! There were more cows nearby with bulls, and it was funny seeing them get frisky. Usually the cows are just chewing and standing there, so we got quite a show.

What, no pictures of the munching?
-P
Unfortunately we were walking without photographic recording devices (including cell phones)
