  • It's going to rain.

    My mother always told me that if cows lay down it is going to rain. It certainly did! One cow wasn't sure though.

    How very English, a cow with a stiff upper lip! I really like how she's placed far to the right, you don't see her immediately

      I remember her ...she always was an outsider

      I think I remember a T.V. prog where they studied a herd and there was a hierarchy and pecking order which meant they all had to do as they were told and only stand in certain places...and I thought they just strolled about eating or sitting down chewing.

      I don't think the old wives tale is reliable but the weather forecasts are certainly based on it.

      Nice shot by the way...a good rural scene.....I wish there was a really dark sky to set off the lush fields.

          Sorry Cathrine it was Scottish, don't know if any significance can be attached to that? Scottish cows more intuitive or more lazy? I didn't see the standing cow either until I did the upload!

                Easy, if you mix English and Norwegian, you get Scottish... (Sometimes ) Otherwise you just get drunk.

                  Are you talking about me?

                  As I was walking doon the road
                  I met a coo,
                  A BULL by goad!

                  Another one
