~Sharing is Caring~

I opened a timothy hay bale this week and they weren't too keen on it as they love alfalfa the best. Alfalfa is sweeter and packed with protein but it was very cold and they were hungry. Thanks to Red (horse) my moose detector alerted me to them being in my gelding's horse shelter sleeping earlier so I had the cam handy. I was feeding my horses and had to stop what I was doing and move away or they would have been right up on me in a flash. Trust me, you don't want Mama moose in your business. In this moment the calf found a tasty morsel after thrashing through the hay with her front legs making a mess and the cow who always has one eye on her calf wanted her to share, the yearling took it away at first then decided to give some to her mom. Moose remind me of a donkey and giraffe all rolled into one in certain comical ways. They can be extremely curious and always reaching for the highest branch. I left them alone after this quick click and came back to feed my horses in an hour and they were gone. I don't have much time these days due to my second job but I thought I would share this story.
