Such an effective photo, Jude. Are they part of a display somewhere? And the mystery is, of course, how does one fish happen to be so different from all the others?
Thatβs always good to know. I switched from lattes to flat whites, partly in the hope cafes might be a little more consistent in their making β sigh.
I always used to drink my coffee black, but then I realised that I wasn’t ever having any dairy except for cheese and I don’t eat that every day. Figured I needed to up the calcium levels. But now I am thinking dairy is not the way to do it π¦
Kale and broccoli are good vegetarian sources of calcium. I love both, but I still prefer my coffee white too.
I struggle with eating dairy products because of the terrible environmental cost. So much of NZ’s water degradation is caused by intensive dairying. I try to use organic whole milk from small dairies, but I’m probably kidding myself that this is actually better. π¦
They do look pretty contented when you see them grazing, or heading off to milking. But milk production depends of repeatedly making the cows pregnant, and then removing their calves soon after birth; whether heifers or bulls. In that sense, theyβre just units of production.

An installation in a cafe on St Michael’s Mount Jane. Caught my eye as I was eating lunch there.
How cool. Iβd love to see what the whole work looks like π
It appears I only took this close-up. The actual work is a circle. I guess I shall just have to return to the cafe and take another photo π
Damn! ππ Hope the food and coffee are good.
The food is very good, also not a bad flat white either π

Not to mention what happens to the boy calves π¦
True βΉοΈ and the dairy cows themselves have horrible lives
Well the ones here don’t look too unhappy. I love to watch them walk along their track to the dairy to be milked.

I agree, that is why I wish I could wean myself off dairy products π¦
Same here. Cheese is my absolute downfall.
Same!

Looks great, Jude, and works really well. π
Best wishes, Pete. x
Thanks Pete. Still raining here! I think I shall need to start growing webbed feet π
Oh, Jude! π
It only stopped raining here in the early hours. More rain forecast for later today. The river has burst its banks, and everything is sodden! π¦
And there I was thinking that we should move to the east coast…
Well it is the driest county in England, Jude. apparently. π
How intriguing…
Absolutely love this Jude-excellent catch ππ
Clever image, Jude. Wishing you a wonderful new year!
Love this pic – it’s a real visual treat π
