Oh la Vache! Photo

Photographer’s Note

Here it is: the most beautiful cow in the world! (truism / typical french chauvinism)
I named the Salers, originated from Cantal, Auvergne, Massif Central.
Red robe, lyre looking horns, what a beauty!
(I agree with Brit readers that the Highland is second on the podium ;-)

The breed was used to produce cheese in a mountain area. Nowadays, the Salers is considered as one of the best suckler cows, due to : exceptional ease of calving, mothering abilities,
hardiness
Salers breed is present in 28 different countries organised with an International Salers Federation.

Old print + scan = noise; Sorry.

Salut Christian.
Je viens de découvrir ta galerie et je suis enchanté par tes photos.
Dommage que cette raine nous montre son arrière train, mais d'un autre coté elle nous pousse à regarder le paysage environnant qui est très beau.
