For a bit of fun, and as they're the flavour of the week, how about this one? ...

...yeah, when they're not saying anything prehistoric, stone or not, is 'like Stonehenge'
If you like photos of cows with stones, go to our main gallery page, scroll to the bottom, put cow cattle in the search box, choose "any words [OR]" and we have hundreds (and some stones named cow too).

I like that. A great theme. (Only 1 iguana, though!).
It shows how important it is to put in a good description for a photo, so we can do interesting searches like that.
And I see you've got the search box at the top of the gallery now, nice one!

P.S. Any chance of reducing the size of the thumbnails on the main gallery page so it'll fit into 1024 pixels across?
Forget that, I now realise that most screens are wide-screen nowadays.
I'm heading towards a 1080p display soon.

Ahh, Cows and Young cattle.Very worrying things.I tend to avoid fields with these inhabitants.They are far too inqisitive and when one starts running towards you they all follow at great speed.Best come back another day,the stones will still be there, the cattle willl have hopefully moved.

Just to reiterate the dangers of our Bovine friends;
School Governor Dies herding cows
It would appear that this guy had experience with bullocks but still came a cropper!
