A newborn Hereford calf looks up to its mother on Tuesday at Chris and Kathy Burgess’ ranch in La Plata County. The cattle are the descendants of cattle that the late Joe Hotter raised in the county for decades. The Burgesses started calving in late February are waiting for the last two calves to be born.
