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.

This group of concrete silos have sat unused for nearly 20 years now when the farmer got out of the dairy business. They will never be used again,and the cost to demo them is high. Recycling them seems not to be a option either. So they will remain,a remembrance of a another time, a time when a simple farmer could make money producing milk for today's consumers. Now that's done by factory farm...

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.

Gilroy’s agricultural history shifted from 19th-century cattle ranching to a premier produce hub known as the "Garlic Capital of the World." Originally dominated by hay, grain, and dairy, the area transitioned to orchard crops (prunes, cherries, apricots) by the 1950s before becoming a major center for garlic, tomatoes, and seeds.

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 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.

“Only he can understand what a farm is, what a country is, who shall have sacrificed part of himself to his farm or country, fought to save it, struggled to make it beautiful. Only then will the love of farm or country fill his heart.”

The dairy at Dyrham Park, near Bath. This is a favourite place at Dyrham, the lovely Delft tiles really add something special to this beautifully lit room. I used iColorama for iPad to create a painted look.

No longer a dairy; it's now a retro mid-century furniture shop.

Hope you have an excellent Christmas everyone. I'll be back in 2022 when, perhaps, I may even have something new to show you.
