Now that I am back in Thailand we are looking for a house with a bigger yard for the dogs. My son is extremely under pressure working on a project, and doesn't have the time to drive around looking, so his girlfriend Pink and I went out looking this morning. On our outing we passed many cows, but I just had to stop and take a shot of this one. The little bird perched on his back seemed to be whispering something in his ear, and he seemed quite interested. We continued on our way, found one house that looked interesting, called the number, and the woman renting it came over right away and showed us around. When we returned home I was describing the house to my son Sean. When we finished talking about it, I remembered the photo I had taken of the cow, and said "Oh, I want to show you a picture. I pulled my camera out of my purse, and he got so excited, and said, "Great, you got pictures?" meaning of the house, of course. I stopped dead in my tracks, and realized, no, forgot I had my camera with me when we were looking at the house. All I got is a picture of a cow. Sometimes those senior moments hit you at the most unsuspecting times, lol. Next time we go looking, I will remember to take photos of the house, too.

Lucky you being back in Thailand. I loved the Thai cattle and the friendly birds. As for senior moments, I tend to forget everything when I'm out photographing too. Looks like this cow was posing for you Carol! Cute shot.

Good post Slugger and the cow does seem to be listening to the bird. This lends credence (not clearwater) to the old line about "A little birdie told me." Good luck in your house hunting.

What a fun story! Hope you find the perfect house! I've never seen ropes through the nose like this. I think the bird is telling him how to escape.
