During our weekend of local sightseeing we stopped off here for lunch. It's a working farm but like many farms, has 'diversified'. They have a cafe serving home cooked food, a farm shop, selling farm produce and a gift/ craft shop selling local hand made gifts. Just couldn't leave without a few animal photos, i did think maybe I could try a couple of animal paintings. I especially like the angus cattle.
now don't you just love him?? what a handsome beast he is

ReplyDeleteThese youngsters look in good condition, good 'nick' as it is said in Aussie.
ReplyDeleteNow there's a sight you'd be lucky to see on the opposite side of the planet. He'd need a short back and sides to cope with Aussie heat. Scottish bull rastie...
ReplyDeleteSerious horns!
