I’ve been wondering about that as well, most of them have really thick forelocks! I’m thrilled that I’ve encountered these beautiful animals in three different places in just a short period of time! Where I come from, they’re quite rare and shy.
They are super cute! I never tire of them.. But before I loose all readers I think I’d better take a break from the Highlands! Hopefully be back in the spring when (or if) they have newborns
Calee, except for the horns they look like cuddly critters. I especially love the charm of the last photo where you see the long tail and an eye peeking through the mop of hair. Nice collection of pictures!!
Hi Calee..If you’re taking a break ,I,ll pick up with the black version o them ;0)..Although they certainly don,t look and act as friendly like you make these do.
Forgot that all the fields are floated still and didn’t see them just now ..
And no , the are NOT all friendly , the number of times I had to jump over barb wired fences,.. the steam coming out of their nose and they deceided to come after me, can’t be counted on two hands , lol
You can never have too many shots of these critters, though I can certainly understand your desire to mix things up a little. i look forward to their return in the future.
Thanks Mike, I always appreciate you stopping by!! Indeed, it’s nice to vary the subjects every now and then.. I’m taking a break, but these cows will be back on this blog!
I don’t know how they see with all that hair in their eyes. I can see your interest – they are different than any cattle I have seen before.

Aren’t all cows friendly? They seem so peaceful, just hanging around, chewing grass..
