On a heavily overcast May day in Georgia, we went for a ride. Along the way....we saw strange bovines in a distant field. Ignorning the first drops of rain; many, many fire ant hills (ignored but not missed, unfortunately) deep wet grass, the possibility of snakes and ticks, we tresspassed just a little to get a closer look.
Not what one expects to find in GA. These beasts were in a rolling green field with a nice muddy pond at the bottom. They seemed very content, but three of them decided to let us know that they were HUGE just in case we tried to cross the fence. It NEVER entered our minds! I have now determined that they are Cape Buffalo. No idea what they are doing in Georgia, but we are going to try to find out. Google tells me that Cape Buffalo are very dangerous.....and I believe it.
After taking as many pictures as we could as the rain beat down, we drove on to find the most beautiful corner in the SE with an old, old house with a little mother cat and her 4 little kittens enjoying the sunshine on the front porch - yes, the weather can be quirky. We also met 5 more donkeys and a few more gorgeous cows.
Here is a nice portrait of the mother cat just to offset the beasts. All in all it was a great day for photography.
Interesting photo!
