This very MOOtiful double act were busy posing just outside my brother's property near Orange in New South Wales.
Cattle—colloquially cows—are the most common type of large domesticated ungulates. They are a prominent modern member of the subfamily Bovinae, are the most widespread species of the genus Bos, and are most commonly classified collectively as Bos taurus.
Cattle are commonly raised as livestock for meat (beef or veal, see beef cattle), for milk (see dairy cattle), and for hides, which are used to make leather. They are used as riding animals and draft animals (oxen or bullocks, which pull carts, plows and other implements). Another product of cattle is dung, which can be used to create manure or fuel. In some regions, such as parts of India, cattle have significant religious meaning. Cattle, mostly small breeds such as the Miniature Zebu, are also kept as pets.
Around 10,500 years ago, cattle were domesticated from as few as 80 progenitors in central Anatolia, the Levant and Western Iran. According to an estimate from 2011, there are 1.4 billion cattle in the world. In 2009, cattle became one of the first livestock animals to have a fully mapped genome.

When it comes to the Fraser Valley, there's one thing we have and that's lots of cows, of all shapes and sizes.
Here's some Dairy Holsteins right here in Aldergrove.
The smokey haze of Washington fires can be seen in the trees and sky.
Detail of the 1879 steam operated dairy factory "Freia", originally located at Veenwouden, Friesland.
The oldest part of the factory was torn down and rebuilt at the Dutch Open Air Museum in 1991.

The Pyengana Dairy is famous for its fine cheeses and high quality milk. Here a cow that has been milked is walking back towards its grazing paddock. In infra red it certainly stands out against the white background.
* There'll be a few days pause after this one as I will be away for the early part of this week. Take care.
Richmond Dairy Co aka the milk bottle building - Built in 1913 the dairy building now serves as apartments located downtown Richmond Virginia.
Mr J. Evans arrived from Wales in London in 1916 and established his dairy shop. Up the 1950s there were still 700 Welsh dairies in London.
A dairy that has closed down. On this day I traversed about 125 miles throughout the west side of the San Joaquin Valley. I was greatly saddened to see so many livestock (dairy cows, horses, goats and cattle) left with no shelter with the temperatures pushing 100 degrees many days through the summer. What the hell is wrong with us? Our meat, dairy and livestock industry has no shame and only cares about profit. I don't eat meat anymore but still love some dairy products even though that is wrong.
Don't remember the exact words but was thinking about when I was very small and we lived on a dairy.. The German Shepherd Dog was my babysitter and I loved old Bo Dearly.. Happy Sliders Sunday, Everybody!!!!!

Sumas Mountain, lush green and forested, dominates the background while a number of dairy farms, ubiquitous to this region, dot the valley acreage and give off that sweet, unmistakable aroma of "dairy air" as the M-EVESUM1-20T rolls into town with 88 cars for customers both here and across the international border to the north in Canada.
Another fine trip up the former Northern Pacific line in the books.

The Dairy Queen on East Main Street in Port Colborne, Ontario was one of the first Dairy Queen outlets in Canada. It was built in 1954 and remains basically unchanged since that time. I remember going there as a kid growing up in Port Colborne. The neon sign on the roof us the original and was dark for over forty years until refurbished and relit in 2025. The Dairy Queen corporation has allowed this old iconic logo to remain at this location.
Nice sunset ... even if the foreground is a bit of a mess. The sun dropped down before I could get the tractor to a more picturesque location.
The other day I mentioned that many dairy farmers had packed it in over recent years and walked away from their farms because of unrelenting cost and climate pressures on their industry. My Brisbane based flickr friend sccart who I believe hails from the Northern Rivers area mentioned that like their Queensland brethren to the north, quite a large number of those in the Northern Rivers had also shut up shop. We came across this old dairy beside the Maclean to Grafton back road which was obviously amongst the victims and probably just harbouring red-bellied black snakes with the sound of gentle mooing now just a memory.
