The cows are coming.....get out of the way!
|
|
|
|
They've had a hard day out in the pasture....In the mornings the cows leave their yards led my a man paid to watch them all day long.

|
|
For a city girl, this may be my only chance to have a picture made with cows...
|
|
|
|
They went right around me....
|
|
|
|
When returning into the village, the cows know just where they live and enter the yard. Amazing to me....
