Cool Dumb animals? I think not.

Out and about in County Clare, Ireland............some very impressive animals.

Great shots. The first two look like they are wearing gumboots. I have a top to match those earings, lol.

The pictures are beautiful and very well composed.
You will have to excuse me but where you see the cows I see lunch and dinner.
These look very tasty!
Cosidering that I was born in Argentina that should not be a surprise.

Thanks for sharing these noble creatures .

An excellent set bovine beauties and I agree with you, cows are great, although I can't look at images of cows without being reminded of the Pink Floyd album, Atom Heart Mother, cheers Moi, now I'm back in the Summer of 68

I love DPS! I get to see so many things from so many viewpoints. Who would have thought that I could really enjoy pictures of cows. But, now I know that I do, and I have really enjoyed these plus the quote from Thomas de Quincey
