Cows
Monday, May 04, 2020
Andy and I went for a walk yesterday afternoon and visited the Naughty Cows. We always go and see them when we're there. We spend a chunk of time peering at them, as they peer back at us, sniffing and huffing, jostling for a prime spot. It's clear they think we have food. We never do.
Andy and I agreed that we like cows noses, yeah this is the kinda thing we chat about. So if you think the huge, wet nose of a cow is a hideous thing, look away now, because we're getting close up.
I hope you had a lovely weekend. I certainly enjoyed our walk, which started with a wander through the bluebell wood, allowed us to check on some crops, and ended at this cow gate.
I'm not sure I'd like to be in the field with them, but from behind a sturdy gate I can happily chat away with them for ages. They seem to like Andy, and spend a lot of time sniffing him, and often trying to give him a lick too. Make of that what you will.

They are gorgeous! I love their inquisitive noses. Cows are the best, most of India agree! xxx
ReplyDeleteAnd I most certainly agree too!

I love your cow pictures - they are just fabulous. I like cows a lot, I like their big dark eyes. Thanks for sharing - that's the kind of walk I would like to take :)
ReplyDeleteIt was a lovely walk, it's the one we probably do most often.

The Naughty Cows definitely cheered me up, Hazel, and I really cannot imagine why anyone wouldn't love cows' noses! What a funny bunch they are, jostling for attention! xxx
ReplyDeleteI'm glad they cheered you up Ann, they did me too!

I do like cows, but from a safe distance.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean, I'm fine if they're behind a nice strong gate!

We're all brave behind a big strong gate Hazel, haha!!!
ReplyDeleteI want to know why they're called the naughty cows.
Many's the time I approach a field like that with the footpath indicating the way smack through the middle and my heart (and stomach) plummets to my feet. Gulp. Nah I'll u-turn thanks.
Very cute pictures of noses, even though I felt at risk of being snotted on xx
Too right! Luckily this field runs along side the path we take so no need to get too close.
DeleteThey're naughty because a few years ago the cows in this field broke out and closed the dual carriage way for hours! So now all cows in this field are dubbed 'naughty'.
Sorry you felt a risk :) I managed to get away snot free, Andy on the other hand came away covered in cow saliva, much to my amusement!!

Just seen this post (very late) and noticed how very much like my weekend was last weekend, bluebells and curious cows!
ReplyDeleteIt's a winning combination :)
