It's funny how cows, most animals actually, turn and look when we approach. I guess they're as interested in us as we are in them. This guy sure was interested in me. There are 83,000 dairy cows and 2.6 million head of cattle in Colorado. No wonder I see them everywhere. Nearly half of Colorado, or about 31 million acres is farmed or ranched. The cattle industry is the no. 1 agricultural commodity in the state.

Lovely colors -and nice brushstrokes. Isn't it nice to have a new love interest - even if he is a cow. I just think it's amazing the emotions animals have. Like the whale in SFO bay I think that was bound in all kinds of fishing lines. Many divers worked for hours to free him. Afterwards, the whale swam to each diver and nudged them gently - maybe even nose kissed one as a thank you. was an amazing video.
