Thanks aj.
These are older cows that will be flushed in the coming months to some top Canadian sires.

Stunning I must add...  although, I can't say I've ever seen a black shorthorn around here.

Okay, I know you guys say its winter out there but unless you're freezing your toes I don't think you should be allowed to call it that. Maybe you can call Australian winters "lesser summer", or  something!
That being said, very nice cattle  (thumbsup) What else is in the steer beside shorthorn?

And Thunder knows what real winter weather is really like! Our high today is 18C (63F) and Adelaide's is 15C(59F). (lol)  (It is a lot cooler here today than it has been though)
Your calves are looking good this "lesser summer" <beer>

Haha, it has actually been a little cool here recently but today they are predicting 18C in Sydney... this really isn't winter, and we haven't had much of one yet.
The calf is by an Angus bull and out of the cow pictured with him.

Thanks Okotoks, when are you going to come see them for yourself?  ;D
