I thought I was all done posting Dairy Show photos .. but there's more! (1) Spunky, (2) Spunky, (3) Sassy, (4) Buttercream.
1: Spunky practices the "Rita wild eye".
2. Serious face, unserious sawdust on her nose.
3. Detail of Sassy using Spunky as a headrest.
4. Buttercream's default resting pose, she will often turn sideways in the stall & take up 3x more space than allotted. Last year, we had to shift the whole line b/c of Buttercream's mom, Cocoa Puff.

Final Dairy Show 2023 photos: 1: Ruby (L) and Sassy (R), almost the same age and in the same class. 2: location in WV, hotter (and humider? my word) than the hubs of Hades, but lovely. The barn is behind me. Betty the dry cow (3), and Ruby the littlest one curled up for a nap (4). All Ayrshires in these photos.

Buttercream the Brown Swiss at a dairy show. She frequently kept an alert eye on what was going on from her stall ๐ .

Betty the Ayrshire, with Buttercream the Brown Swiss and Helena the Holstein in the background. We showed Betty as a dry cow, she milked over 100lb.s a day at points during her first lactation. That's really good for an Ayrshire.

Betty the Ayrshire at a show ... she's a dry cow (not milking atm) & seemed to luxuriate in having a big space all of her own.
We learned: she corners like a freight train, have to make big circles to turn.

Buttercream the Brown Swiss, recently clipped for a show. "What?!"
She is getting very big and she knows it -- using her weight to push the humans around. Mom's catch pen system is very creative and effective.
Nikon z6ii, f/5.6, ISO 2000, 1/320s, 230mm.
