On a gray, slightly foggy morning, I arrived at Piney Woods Church Road with the particular intent of photographing a daffodil bud that I had seen (for the first time this year) the previous day.  I quickly got down to work, shooting the leaves and flower bud from various angles, taking over 30 different pictures.  At last, satisfied that there would be something of value to show for my efforts, I stood up and looked into the field beyond the roadside barbed-wire fence.  A dozen feet away from me were two more daffodils, already flowering!  The pasture also contained over a dozen cows, one of which was obligingly grazing beyond where the daffodils grew.  The result is this image, a cow dining among the daffodils.  (Since the cows avoid eating daffodils, the plants have been flourishing here for many years.)
