  Very docile and obliging cows. Try milking an untethered cow - usually, they just walk on leaving you and pail behind.

• Swordscookie said:

  Excellent photo but I suspect it was a bit staged? As Stu says milking in a field is likely to leave you sitting on your rear as the cow walks off looking for greener grass. It does show a few changes from present day farms though, such as the horns on the cows, you'd never see them today.

• Wiblick said:

  I think I see a spancel on the back left leg of the cow, hidden by the bucket on the other side, fettering would have made the staging of the photo a bit easier.

• Stuart said:

  Wiblick Well spotted. Never noticed it before!

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  Stuart Me either! So thanks to Wiblick for spotting this...
