Camera Critters 12


Photo taken in Cona, Italy on a buffalo farm. Since they are waterbuffaloes, they need water to cool down and will move in and out of the water during the day. The milk of those ladies was used to make yummy mozzarella.

For more critters from around the world, please go to Camera Critters and join in the fun.

  3. They look like they're enjoying a cool dip, even if it is a little close in there with all their friends.

  7. I had no idea they raised water buffalo in Italy. I love your banner with the photo of the old Fiat.

  8. They really demonstrate why they are called waterbuffaloes. Great shot. Somewhere in Groningen there is an Italian who makes real buffalo mozzarella; yummy indeed. I've heard he has a herd of buffaloes running around in the fields around his home.

    Daar zal menig Groningse boer raar van hebben opgekeken: 'Wa bint da veur beest'n?' Hihi.
    Fijn dat je 'me trouw bent gebleven'. Gaat alles goed met jou en met het poezenspul?

  9. Oh, I love it! And I love mozzarella, too! MMm!

    They still have their horns! They seldom leave them on the cattle here for fear they'll damage each other at close quarters.

    Love the car up there, too. Boy, is that looking battered! That's what you get for driving in Rome, huh? LOL!
