Olivia,
First, I`m partial to cows.
Great cow pix.
I see your favorite tree also.
It looks like it`s directing cows where to go.
The lower right field shot is my kind of field.
I don`t care how long the duck has it`s head underwater, I can still see it. I`m not that dumb.
And to all the new names I see, have a great day.
One more thing.
Olivia, what are you doing up so late or is it real early.
A terrific set of images.

Now this is just a fantastic way to start a Monday. Really, there's just nothing better than to wake up to a glorious duck butt (979)! :D

Oh yeah ... the other pictures are really good too. I think I'm going to take a little stroll down that inviting trail on the bottom right.

Yay, she's back!!! And a huge mosaic to make up for lost time!

The cow trying to do the limbo… well, she's too big to be cute, but she's sure trying…

Nothing makes me want to move to Canada more than the way you capture it through your lens and then set it free on the internets.

Looks like the idyllic summer we all dream of. Now I've got to go back and see if you're the gal I spoke of in my post today. :D

Yippee!! You're baaaaack!!!! Now if I can just hear from FM and IVG, I will be a happy camper again.

Wonderful collection of photos. You've about covered the whole range of interests. My favs would be of course the duck butt, the cow head and the darling little sparrow bathing while naked as a j-... as a
sparrow.

Somehow cow butts don't make it like the duck butt does. Are there several of them laying down?

That little frog is pretty cute too and I love the foxglove!

Thanks for coming back to us!

Well, howdy doody, Olivia!

I thought you had left home! Which you probably had, following at the coo's tail (as they say in these here parts)! Great to have you back.

Love all of them but the cow really appeals to me. Because she looks like she is appealing to me.

So fun! The duck caught my eye straight away and then that sweet cow face. I love cows and have some across the road that are so fun to watch.

Pretty flowers.

Have a happy Monday!

Gosh - I haven't been here in what feels like an eternity! As usual, beautiful shots, O! Someone thought my rose petals were candy floss. Isn't that funny?

Thanks everyone!

I didn't realize how popular cows are ... hmmmm ... :)

And of course, duck butts.
