...and some walkers/farmers, in the UK, have been killed by them, the cows can be dangerous with calves around or if you have a dog with you....don't trust them.

Cows from outer space?
Love #2 
Seriously, we all tend to think of cows as good quiet fellows always ready for a cuddle but we tend to forget that aside from the balls and the, er, reproduction tool, they are not so different from those bulls everyone is so (rightly) scared about.

I really like the second one. They probably approached because you appeared at a normal feeding time, and they assumed some grain or fresh hay was on the way ...

sadly it happens here very often. Cows are all around here everywhere. When I make a mountain trip I usually have to go through many fields (Alm) with many cows. I often seen adults not caring about their kids. Kids are usually not afraid of cows and tend to play with them. This is very dangerous, especially when calves are around.
the scene from the photographs looks actually more frightening then it really was. this was a place in the mountains where heardly people walk. They were interested about this stranger with the cam and came very slow towards me, to check out what he is doing with his big lens
Cheers
