Coinneach (kon-YAHK)

Y'all, Maisie's son is the absolute sweetest calf I've ever come across! I've decided to name him Coinneach, which means handsome in Scottish. 

From day two (Thursday) and everyday since then, Coinneach will readily come up to me and get a nice throat scratching! He's so curious and friendly that everyone in the pasture absolutely loves him. Rory, who is noticing all this attention, is slowly starting to come back to me. He's not letting me touch him yet (not since the banding), but he's getting really close. Then I turn around and little Jewel is eyeing me like she wants petting, but she doesn't understand she has to let me get close to her for this to happen. 

The weather is great and I'm just having fun with the coos. Have a great start to the week!
