more 'oh well, the cow is just being a cow, and that's how it is.' it's become more like... i'm the visitor in their world.
animals, birds, nature in general are a wonderful reminder of that. living close to nature as i do, i am constantly bought back to the moment of now as i observe the flight and song of a bird, the silent passing of a cloud or butterfly, and the brief scent of blossom or the gentle rustle of leaves brought by the wind. of course there are many such moments, in fact, they are endless. it is something i find nature gently reminds me... again and again.
