There are a lot of farms around my house. Going to the store I pass by scenes such as this one. I could not resist stopping and taking a few photos of these baby Holstein cows. They are my favorite, they are black and white. I have called them black and white cows all of my life. The I researched and realized they are actually Holstein cows. I counted 25 babies here in their own little pasture. There is a fence post in the bottom right corner of the photo, there is also an electric fence for the babies’ protection. I did not know the history of these cows but I read they originated from the Dutch provinces of North Holland and Friesland, and Schleswig-Holstein in Northern Germany and Jutland. They are known as the world’s highest-production dairy animals. They are almost always found on dairy farms.

Thank you very much, I love these cows.
Great photo & post….thank you for sharing 🙂
Thank you for visiting Courtney.
And I, like Gary, love rural areas. There is something left to do with nature. In the big cities, this link is missing. I still think of my childhood, which was different from childhood nowadays. My grandchildren part of the animals have seen them only on a picture.
Yes there are still some small towns away from the big city that have scenes like this, I love living here.

Very beautiful picture! People still make fun of me for how much I loved cows when I was little.
Thanks Ellie, I have always loved them and now more than ever it seems, especially the babies.
It seems like they really enjoy life by relaxing in a beautiful place.
Yes they have their own filed. They are just the cutest and make me smile Albert.
Although they look like tiny spots in this photo they are adorable indeed.
