Thirsty Cow at the Water Trough

A gentle cow leans forward, her nose just above the edge of a big trough. She stretches her neck out and puckers her lips to take a long, cool sip. Her big, round eyes watch the ripples dancing across the water’s shiny surface.

Beneath her chin, the trough’s water acts like a magical mirror. The cow's face appears twice—once in real life, and once upside down, wibbly-wobbly in the reflection. Her soft ears stand to the side, and wavy patches cover her side. The farm is quiet, except for a tiny splash each time she drinks.

Fun Fact!

Different breeds of cattle are better suited to different climates; some thrive in hot weather, others in cold.
