Nachusa welcomes the newest member to the herd, a bright rusty-red 40-60 pound calf. The calf was first spotted at 12:40 on Apr. 24 by Susan Kleiman. Yesterday the new calf was easily seen from the visitor entrance, so bring your binoculars and maybe you will spot Nachusa’s newest addition!
Herd total: 75 Today’s blog was brought to you by Charles Larry, a photographer for Nachusa (charleslarryphotography.zenfolio.com). Photos taken 4-25-2016.

We aren't sure, as the cows are not tested for pregnancy at the fall roundup.
