A few days ago, he fenced off a portion of the rye grass field behind the barn, and gave the cows a fresh field to chew down. That electric fence is all that keeps them from the even larger field beyond, but they've learned to respect a hot wire. Usually...
They go to the far end and put their heads down. Ahh...
As a "thank you", there was more milk in the tank this morning...maybe they think they're in cow heaven?!
Linking to Good Fences #7 again this week.
how awesome! definitely happy, heavenly cows!
ReplyDeleteHappy cows ~ great milk :))
ReplyDeleteGreen grass means more milk in the tank and less labor for the guys and happier cows. Our still have to wait a while before we can put them out. sigh...
ReplyDeleteHugs,

I'm so glad they are out for a while!
ReplyDeleteOh that grass is just the most amazing color of green. Happy cows for sure!
ReplyDeleteHolsteins on new green grass! Heaven indeed!
ReplyDeleteThese are truly happy cows! Look at the lush green of the grass! Yes, I do think they believe they're in cow heaven.
ReplyDeleteI love to see happy cows!
ReplyDeleteEveryone wins on this one
ReplyDeleteHappy cows equals more milk.
ReplyDeleteWell it does look like cow heaven to me. What a beautiful shot and I love all of that green.
ReplyDeleteCows may not smile big smiles but I believe a new field of grass after a long cold winter makes them happy enough to dance. I know that's how I feel about fields of grass right now.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Love that big tree!
ReplyDeleteThere is no better site than cows on green grass. What happened to your potatoes? Did you plant too early? I was told put them in at Easter, but holy cow we still have snow then. I can't think they hold up. Hope the rest of your garden is fruitful.
ReplyDeleteWe've had such a cold spring, and soon after I planted them, we had 4" of rain and cool weather. I thought the'd rotted, but just saw in the last few days, that they're coming up!
DeleteLush green rye. I'm sure they are in cow heaven.
ReplyDeleteIt's so green...I bet the cows are lovin' every minute they can be out in this. More grass, more milk huh?
ReplyDeleteWondrous.
cows in sweden are out too now. Am sure they also produce a bit more milk then. :)
ReplyDeleteI guess all of us are feeling cheerful now that we can spend more time outdoors!
ReplyDeleteThat does look like cow heaven!
