Glad the gate was between you and them, Willpar
Cattle, especially young cattle, are very inquisitive and this can be mistaken for aggression if they run towards you. If there are young calves with their mothers it is best to keep clear of some breeds especially if you have a dog with you.

After I took the video, I stayed there for a little while and was stroking them on the forehead. Best thing was they nearly all wanted to have a stroke, so a little pushing and shoving was going on. But one cheeky thing did grab the arm of my coat.

Took this today over the farm. Never seen pink ones in the wild before. Maybe it is a hybrid

Corn poppies can come in white too, Willpar, although that's much rarer than the pink 'uns.
The oats for my breakfast look good too

Oh don't they look so pretty dancing and fluttering in the breeze
I don't think I've ever seen a pink one - lovely
