Milking shed
This is the building housing yesterday's cows. Some of the cows sauntered out casually after being milked while others, like these two, hoofed it out of there.

Who and why
I started this blog in Jan 2007 as a member of the City Daily Photo family representing the village of Villigen. I'm a transplant to Switzerland and keeping the blog was a way for me to keep a record of new things I learnt while sharing with others. I was on a long LONG break, and now I post only sporadically although I still have hopes of posting more regularly. Thanks for stopping by and drop me a line if you have questions or comments. Camera and other information at the foot of the page. 20150322

Camera information
My current camera is an Olympus OM-D E-M10 (2014). Main lens: Panasonic 20mm f/1.7. Zoom/macro: Olympus M.Zuiko 60mm f/2.8. Until mid-2014 I had an Olympus PEN-EP2 (2010). Up until June 2010 I used a Panasonic Lumix FZ7 (2006). Occasionally there may appear photos taken with either a Nikon Coolpix 950 that I've had since 2000 or a used Nikon Coolpix 990 I acquired in 2009.

cute cows, j'aime les vaches et cette photo est bien jolie, le fromage est caché où!!
I like seeing those cows grazing free and free to rable after being milked ... Happy cows produce good milk, that's what I read. Is that true, Z?
It would be absolutely wonderful if you could get INSIDE that she as well!
Lucky cows ! They have a beautifull milking shed. That's good to go pasturing after milking.
You are right in that other photo - 18 cows. I know a little about cows. See that light brown one in the centre - she is what I call a Guernsey which produces creamy milk and lots of it. There are no Jersey cows in this lot - they produce the creamiest milk but less of it. THe black and white cows are called Fresians and they produce loads of milk that is not particularly creamy. Now the brown cows I am unsure of. They look like what we in Australia know as Illawarra Shorthorns which no self-respecting dairy man would have in his herd. They are owned by families who want fresh milk.
Here endeth the lesson.
