CEE’S FUN FOTO CHALLENGE: MORE THAN 5 ITEMS
Lots of things all together. What fun! How about a gaggle of geese?
A herd of cows?
A flock of birds?
And, of course, flowers.
And finally, the ultimate photographic challenge. Eggs. A whole dozen.

Love the gaggle of geese.
Love all the photos. Animal ones always make me smile. I am a farmer’s daughter.

It’s nice living in an area where there’s still wildlife. And farms. And cows that amble down the country road to the next field, then stroll back at milking time. We’re still in the 19th century around here. Sometimes, it’s maddening. Most of the time, it’s lovely and peaceful 🙂

Cool photos. Love your gaggle of geese and how serendipitous catching the girl running behind the cows.

If you are there at the right time of evening, it’s a daily event. They do it all the old-fashioned way, putting the cows out to pasture in the morning, bringing them home for milking at night. Happy cows 🙂

In Austria when the cows come down from the higher mountain pastures they dress them up and herd them down to the villages – Almabtrieb it is called. Must try and dig out my photos. It is a major event every year

That sounds wonderful, like bringing the cattle in on the big ranches out west. Here, they are just bringing them back from down the road, back to the barn. This particular farm is just around the corner from our house, but it has an incredible beautiful location, right along the banks of the Blackstone, with little feeder creeks running into the pastures. And they own a LOT of acres on both sides of the road. Orchards. Fields. Cattle. Chickens and coops. Honey hives.

Heaven for photographers. It was a huge festival for the Austrians. A good excuse to get drunk really.

In most cultures, all holidays seem to be a good excuse to get drunk. Today, too. It’s quite the American way.

Too pretty to eat. Probably much too tough too.

I had fun with this. I always wanted to do the eggs 🙂 I got so excited, I decided to make Deviled eggs for dinner. To go with the hummus.

Mine has been a little over worked lately. We are having the Pan Am Games and the traffic is incredible. It’s the only way to get around. I’ll see what I can do.

Geese gaggle 🙂 What could I do? The best thing about eggz is they stay put, just being eggs. Thank you Cee. This is a fun challenge!

The farmer’s daughter is just fab. But is that the dreaded, but so alluring water hyacinth in the first pic with the geese?
LikeLike
Just because I happen to know… it’s not water hyacinth, it’s pickerel.

Thank you. It has a close cousin look, but it isn’t (thank goodness!).

thanks for the info.

I’m hoping that pernicious plant doesn’t make its way north. We have enough issues with hitchhikers and introduced species of all kinds (especially birds).

I don’t think it is true water hyacinth, though I can see the resemblance. It’s too far north for the real deal. This is just a regular water growing purple wildflower. It hasn’t been clogging our rivers (it has a short blooming period, about two weeks, mid August). I think our rivers are too cold and have too strong a current.
I looked them up, just in case, but these aren’t them. Not yet. They are still about 1000 miles south of here, being a major ecological pain in the neck. The leaves of this are thinner as is the stem. It only grows along the shore, too. There are a lot of things down south and out west I am glad haven’t made it here. Some other, which have, I wish would go back wherever they came from!
