Strolling of the Heifers - 2010

Brattleboro, VT - Another Strolling of the Heifers. This year I decided to do something different, at least for my first day of posting (I will post more tomorrow), I decided to do some up close and personal shots. I usually don't take close ups of people. But the stroll is a target rich environment for interesting characters.


The Dairy Godmother, she and her helper who sprinkles fairy dust are some of the entertainment before the parade.


A cow head.


A masked cow head


I'm not sure what was up with the feathered trunk? proboscis? She was walking around with stilts.


Hey! Stop taking my photo.


A fruit and a vegetable; they and their friends were, lets say picking up after the heifers. I guess they will have plenty of fertilizer for themselves.


This person had a very good view.


He was after the cheese.


This guy was driving his tractor, pulling a float.


Bubble Head


The person in this suit must have been very hot. I did notice that this person could really jump, I wonder if it was filled with Helium?

Ski Jump cow, who said they can't jump?


Mooie Armstrong, walking in front of a Jazz Band.


Bringing up the rear of the dragon.

I believe this women is protesting the Vermont Yankee Power Plant.


This women was one of the protesters, she looked real cool with the goggles and makeup but I could never get her to look my way.


Hey, that statue winked at me!


I will have more photos tomorrow.
