Like Mother, Like Daughter

I'm really going to miss Sara!  She's been our most photogenic cow, and she has tons of personality!  Fortunately, Siobhan has tons of personality, too, and a much better temperament.  I was watching Siobhan and Macree in the barnyard this evening, and what popped into my head was: "Like mother, like daughter!"

Before I share today's photos, here are a couple of older ones to show you what I mean.

Sara is always the first one galloping ahead into a new pasture.  Like mother . . .

... like daughter.

When Sara is excited about changing pastures, she leaps and bucks.  Like mother . . .

... like daughter.

Sara has a funny habit of picking up her food bowl when it's empty . . .

... and tossing it.

Like mother . . .

... like daughter.

There's one major difference between Siobhan and Sara.  Sara would never have shared her feed tub with Siobhan like Siobhan shares with Macree!

But that blissful, eyes-closed in delight with their food?  Like grandmother, like mother, like daughter!
