Who blinked first? by jamibann

Who blinked first?

I'm going to back to mid-February here. I never posted this image at the time, because I was deep in my themed Flash of Red month. However, I reckon that it deserves being posted on my 365 page, albeit a tad late. Our boys were walking in front and us girls were chatting at the back. Suddenly I looked up and saw the boys being faced down by a mummy Heelan' Coo! She had managed to get out of the field and had gone for a walk too ... clearly! Anyway, she blinked first, and we all went our own ways. :-)

Off to Edinburgh now for a rugby weekend. Let's hope Scotland play well against France. No guarantees of that! The French team is very strong this year.
I did laugh at your title and story! Certainly looks quite threatening at first.

The coo looks ready for attack - but the boys are in deep conversation they weren't even aware!! Love it :) fav

Love this shot Issi. It really makes one wonder what happened next. :)

Funny but it could have been otherwise - she looks to be in calf and animals are often freakishly protective when they're expecting young.

I would be gone, not stopping even to blink.

what a standoff :)

This looks like a modern take on a fairy tale. Instead of a troll blocking the path, it's a massive bovine! The Scottish Hamilton blood in me says "Go Scotland". I married into France.

Always send the boys ahead first.
