A Highland Cow Having a Swig of BeerПросмотров: 241Our beef cattle are raised in the traditional Kobe style -- they are fed beer and grain. Normally, they don't like the "fizz" in the beer, so prefer it if we pour it over the grain and let it sit for a few hours. But this was a hot spring day, and this cow quite enjoyed the cold beer right from the bottle.

Dinner TimeПросмотров: 234We usually feed the cattle and the pigs separately, in troughs on opposite sides of the field. But today was "photo" day, so we fed them together. And they happily shared their feed.

Bob Lawrence Using Air Rifle To Shoot the SteerПросмотров: 223This is actually the moment that the dart hit the steer (UK302940500041). You can see him losing his step on the right of the photograph, with the red tip of the dart showing. Bob Lawrence, from the West Midland Safari Park, has just fired the air rifle.

"Spooky" Alice and Her CalfПросмотров: 221"Spooky" Alice is our only Highland cow minus her horns. Our former stockmen wouldn't handle her as they felt she was too dangerous, so the compromise was to keep her (instead of kill her) but minus her horns. Alice and her calf have now moved to a new home in Wales.

Butter Wouldn't Melt in Their MouthsПросмотров: 219They look so cute, all lined up on a sunny Sunday morning. But two of these Highland cattle have proven to be impossible for us to catch despite hours of trying. You should see them jump the fences!

Greg feeding Lord MacFhionghuain of LuciesПросмотров: 218Trying to lure one of the cows into the stock trailer --- we thought we'd have better luck with His Lordship, and she'd follow. "No" on both counts, I'm afraid.
