The Cattle

It's been a while since I posted any pics of the cattle.  Since they seem to be the theme this week, here's a quick shot or two I grabbed this morning while they were up in the pasture bordering the house.  Of course, this is only 2 of the 3.  The other longhorn is over at the neighbors still...she has decided she likes their herd better and we are having a hard time convincing her to come back home.

The other longhorn's horns are more "flat" meaning they grow more out straight from her head and she has more brown on her face.

Note how "Ol' Bessie" the brown swiss is becoming a "blond swiss?"  Apparently the sun in Switzerland is not as punishing on a girls "doo" as it is here in TX.  For reference, click here for the last pictures we had taken of her from back in November '07.  She is packing on the pounds and you can really see in the picture above that she has a VERY full figure.

I'm not a huge cattle fan, but I got to admit those are some good-lookin animals.
