While we were out watching and following the birds I stopped to take a few photos of the black angus cattle that were in the field next to the road. They were very interested in me and I in them. You can see the electric fence in this shot. Later I stepped over it and got closer to them. They kept inching closer and I kept creeping forward too. They had never seen a human lay on the ground before. They were thinking, "Is he here to feed us or is he something completely new?" I didn't feed them. I just took their pictures. Wendy and Luke waited very patiently in the car. It's funny that when I'm driving Wendy tenses up if I go close to the center line or the shoulder of the road. But she wasn't nervous at all when I was lying on the ground a few feet from the big old bull and all these cows. No picture of the bull, he was ugly, sway-backed and angular. Nothing like my granddaddy's old angus bull that won the blue ribbon at the county fair when I was a young'n. Wish I had a picture of that one.
