New Calves & the Farmall 856 Gets a Canopy
Calves are popping out all over! Patti had a bull calf that we are keeping as a potential future breeding bull, and while I'm walking the pasture in this video, Dolly delivers her calf. Afterwards, I install a new canopy on the Farmall 856. It turns out the job isn't as easy as I thought it would be.

Big Red Drops A Chipmunk For Fledgling (2 min)
Big Red rings the dinner bell at the Cornell Hawks nest with this chipmunk delivery for her fledgling.
Watch the young hawk scramble to mantle over its meal before digging in. Even though both chicks have fledged, the adults' work isn't over. Big Red and Arthur will continue to supplement their offspring for up to two months as they learn how to hunt for food.
Watch GLG step into view and deliver a hefty meal to her chick in New Zealand. After the feeding, weight checks showed that GLG provided an impressive 1.6 kg of food, bringing the nestling’s total weight to a healthy 8 kg.

Kayembe’s Story: Saved by a Surrogate, Now a Big BrotherOn October 26, 2021, history was made at Cleveland Metropark Zoo. The first ever gorilla was born in the zoo’s 139-year history. Baby Kayembe arrived prematurely and faced an uncertain start to life. His birth mother, Nneka was unable to provide the maternal care he desperately needed.
Then came an unexpected act of compassion by Fredrika, or Freddie for short. She’s the troops eldest female and a seasoned mother of seven. Freddie stepped in within minutes of Kayembe’s birth. Freddie’s maternal instincts were extraordinary despite being 47 years old, having undergone a hysterectomy and not having given birth herself, Freddie began to lactate. It was a rare and remarkable scientific phenomenon, allowing her to nurse Kayembe naturally.
Freddie remained a constant presence. His surrogate mom, protector and teacher guiding him through the early stages of gorilla life and social development.
Kayembe’s birth mother began lactating and nursing him as well. He nursed from both along with supplemental bottle feedings. Kayembe also sought his father, Mokolo’s attention. There were touching moment and plenty of playtime with his dad.
Then in early 2024, history repeated itself. Another infant gorilla named Jamila arrived at Cleveland Metro Park Zoo. Like Kayembe, Jameela was born prematurely and faced maternal rejection after complicated birth of Fort Worth Zoo. Once again, the zoo turned to Freddie and once again she answered the call.
I'm adding this in here simply because it's such a wonderful action photo. :)
This is a black rhinoceros, a truly magical animal and worryingly now extremely rare. (I saw one in Kenya just once, in all my many visits there.)
Rangers from the Kenya Wildlife Service — wonderful, dedicated people, btw — were trying to sedate it so they could move it safely to a new location. But the rhino didn't want to be sedated. The rangers were all running for their lives because an angry rhino is absolutely NOT to be messed with.

To illustrate the point, here's a fun video of a different angry rhino, this time in Germany. (We can say it's kinda fun, because miraculously the park keeper in the car was quite unhurt apart from a few bruises. :thumbsup:)

Off the coast of Western Australia, a pod of dolphins escorted a young humpback whale from the confines of a shallow bay into deeper water. :heart:

Thank you for this, I actually saw a similar one years ago, but in California, and it was so neat to watch. At the time I thought it was just dolphins playing with a young whale. But they were all close to shore and this young whale seemed to be playing and turning on its belly, which was white and the dolphins were jumping over it and directing the whale to go out to sea. I kept expecting to see the mother whale which did not happen now I know why.:clapping::flower:Quote:
