Hungry and cold...

Roger had cabin fever today...and I guess if I am truthful I did, too.  So we headed to Walmart...but I told him to go to the strip pits first.  We just went through part of it...and out by the one farm that has a few head of cattle.  I often wonder do they see me taking pictures of their cattle since I stop every time I pass them.

I saw a photo of a man busting a hole in the ice so that his cattle could get a drink. It was only then I wondered about farm animals and how they managed sub-zero weather you are having.

I always worry about animals out in the weather. And, I also wonder what people think of me taking pictures of their cows. In fact, I let it keep me from taking them sometimes. Need to get over it.

I'm glad they had something to eat. The extra hair doesn't seem as if it would add that much warmth when its so cold.

They look well fed so that will keep them warm in the cold weather.

Very nice photo. It looks as if the cattle are being well cared for. I do feel sorry for animals (and humans) out in such cold temperatures.

Glad to see they have hay to eat. I always wonder how those animals stay warm in the winter. The trees with the snow in the background look like it makes a good wind break for them.

The farmer probably has his eye on you--as long as you're only shooting with a camera you should be okay.
