Sleep in fields? Like us? Fools. What I'd give to stay in a decent B&B.<br /><br />Cow 4: They deserve a pat on the back if you ask me.Dominic Rivronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02618013365521035400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8319797996494487653.post-55043451858326073812011-08-29T18:08:12.198+01:002011-08-29T18:08:12.198+01:00Interesting observation, Ruth.

I observe that when men get together, they talk while they look at the world. When women get together, they talk and face each other.<br /><br />But both pairs look silent, so what do I know . . . ?Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14204074161539605133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8319797996494487653.post-32321702479662261682011-08-27T10:59:59.188+01:002011-08-27T10:59:59.188+01:00Thanks, Gail. i think you are blessed with some sp...Thanks, Gail. i think you are blessed with some special insight into the secret life of cows, here ...<br /><br />And Grizz: um, yes, those pillows. I've heard of them. I think some unspontaneous, ultra-efficient, rather strange couples may even own them. But not us. Of course. Or our friends. Or anyone we know. Naturally.<br /><br />Weaver, that was great! We can learn a lot from livestock, as you and the Farmer know well ... The photo was taken from the Viking Way between Waddington and Lincoln - from the old hollow way above the South Common, I think, but couldn't swear to it.<br /><br />Thanks for chewing on this, Suman, and coming up with your delightful cowversation ...<br /><br />Holy cow, am - that was just brilliant!The Solitary Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11284354541952038339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8319797996494487653.post-28726162540824822002011-08-27T04:04:18.866+01:002011-08-27T04:04:18.866+01:00The couple on the left are old friends sitting in ...The couple on the left are old friends sitting in green pastures like bookends, listening to old songs by Simoo and Cowfunkle.<br /><br />The couple on the right are discussing sacred cows.<br /><br />(-: Good question (thanks for giving me to the chance be really silly)<br /><br />And a beautiful photo!amhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09212213177713917828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8319797996494487653.post-78592395731334354232011-08-26T21:46:22.062+01:002011-08-26T21:46:22.062+01:00Lovely shots.

In fact, if possible even cows never want to be on any other end on a cow other than it's head. Part of the Bovine Clean Air Imperative, you know.<br /><br />BTW, at the risk of being revealed a spontaneity anachronism, I'm mystified…yes/no pillows? Really?

I believe they are resting and getting ready for Autumn, planning if you will - to where they will migrate for the best food and shelter and water supply. they are a family, and will stay loyal until they die. They have had a good life so far - and are very blessed. <br />Love to you<br />Gail<br />peace.....Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11337675996256691215noreply@blogger.com
