This is the second week of my Just Some Fun Topics challenge series.
This week’s topic is Farm Animals. Feel free to dig around in your archives for photos if you don’t have anything knew you can photograph. Most of all I hope you have fun. This is definitely one where you can add photos of your favorite things.
I had a marvelous response from all of you on last week’s theme of Bikes and Motorcycles. Thanks everyone you always amaze and delight me. I’m proud to announce our featured bloggers from last week’s topic. Their posts really grabbed my attention. Please check out their posts and congratulate them. Maybe you will be chosen next week.

I have a farm, but it isn’t your typical one. It’s probably the last thing you think about when you think of farm animals. 🙂 And I threw in a few typical ones for good measure. Here’s my entry https://seraireland.wordpress.com/2015/03/03/cees-fun-foto-challenge-farm-animals/

Thank you, Carol. It was laugh aloud awesome. Don’t ever let anyone tell you that cows are not intelligent, curious creatures, maybe even with a little bit of a sense of humor. If I lived in the country and didn’t love to travel, I would have one, not so much as a pet, but as a companion.

Hard to tell apart sometimes, I think you are right, the blue patch behind the ear gives it away, it`s how you tell a male emu from a female emu ( bit dangerous to check under the skirt to find out 🙂 ). Cheers, Doug

All are great but the first rooster is out of this world. Loved the irradescent green feathers and his bright red comb. I’d say he was a very active boy.

a Sony Cybershot DSC-HX80…so far I love it. I have been testing my slide converter and am just thrilled with the results. Also dug out some CDs I made in the mid-90s, photos of Mexico and I am VERY pleased with the quality. I used a 35mmSLR then and going through these slides brings back lots of memories. I will get some out soon…I want to do some photo blogs of various places. 🙂 This slide/film converter is the best $150 bucks I ever spent!
