Photos by friend Cheri Lou whose family operates a ranch in western Oklahoma. She goes and snaps photos and sends them to me. I love them. I edited them a little bit.
In case you are wondering, this one’s name is Red. I wonder why?
Here’s a calf getting breakfast. They are always so earnest.
Here’s a family photo. Getting them to line up is like herding cats. In the back you can see some guard donkeys. They protect the herd from coyotes and other predators. They are pretty comical in their own right.
Come check out Our World Tuesday. Lots of stuff going on there.
Hello,
Red is a beautiful cow. I love the sweet calf. The cows and donkeys are cute critters.
Great photos. Take care, enjoy your day! Wishing you a happy new week!
Looks like they have a good life out there. I love watching how the mommas take care of their babies. I’ve been thinking about painting a cow. If you ever get a really good shot of one let me know.
I never realized how furry Angus cows are! Sadly for them, Angus beef is my favorite to eat. It is always so tender and delicious.
Great photos! I’ve never seen a “red” cow before and I’ve never heard of a “guard donkey” before 🙂
Love the Angus shots ~ especially ‘Red.’ ~ Wouldn’t want to have to ‘herd’ them ~ takes know~how I would think ~ Enjoy the photos, though.

I love cows, such gentle creatures. NZ is mainly a farming country and when I stop and talk to them they are so curious.
Wow, I have never seen a red one before.
Worth a Thousand Words
Whoaw! Looks at those muscles and coat. Beautiful beasts. Red looks adorable. I’m happy to learn something new (to me) today – guard donkeys.
Awww – sweet pics!
Great photos and edits! Hard work for sure – for mamas and for the ranchers.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen such furry looking cows before. The ones I’m familiar with are shorthairs.
This is great! Thanks for the chuckle.
