Went for a long drive in the Bethel area Sat. Saw lots of healthy cows. Saw no calves. Shouldn't there be some on the ground by now?
-
For sure. There are a ton in the colockum. Thing is the grass and brush are crazy tall right now so it is hard to see the calves. Give it a month and I bet you see a ton of them.

One large herd of at least 40 cows must have been spooked by something were traveling in a line. No calves Two other herds One which was laying down so maybe there could have been some in there The other was. Milling on a clear cut. No calves. Watched it for half hour. Still a great day. Still drifts so we couldn't drive to the top of timber wolf
-
I have seen that also. Almost like they break up into groups that either have calves or not.
-
Some times the calves will be in a group together hiding away from the cows
-
Was in the wenaha may 27th and seen a brand new wobbly legged calf standing with a couple cows.

I was in bethel and saw a few herds with calves spread out in them. Also driving home had a cow in middle of highway. Behind her was another cow and three very small calves. Wouldn't be surprised if the herds you saw had calves laying in the tall grass.
