I now live "next door" to a small cattle ranch (only a few hundred acres...!) When I moved in I became aware of a very definite 'bellow' that sounded both night and day (in Oct). My parents were here and they raised polled herefords for many years after all of us children left home...and I was informed that the sound was the bull! My question is: Does the bull sound off seasonally? Is it related to the cows in heat only? What else might make him sound off?
I've grown accustomed to the sound, though occasionally at night it still takes me by surprise when things are quiet....Just want to know if this will become 'a background noise' for all seasons or ? thanks, betty
