Fluffy Small Cow Photograph

Small Fluffy Cow

It may not be a very Christmas themed photograph for this time of year but maybe we could all do with a break from Reindeers and enjoy a picture taken earlier in the year of a young cow.

This youngster is huddling down and enjoying the last of the days warm sun or savouring the taste of  a days worth of fresh grass.

This photograph was taken along the cycle track between Alverstone and Newchurch on the Isle of Wight where you can also see many other signs of life. Badgers, ducks, foxes, rabbits and much more have been spotted regularly along this route.
