Bossy cow pushes herd mate off to enjoy a good face scratch

These cows live a wonderful life on a beautiful farm in Ontario, Canada. They have lush, green pasture to graze, rolling hills, treed forest, and ponds full of fresh water to drink from. They have sunshine when they want and shade when they choose. It's life on a free range farm and it's as close as possible to what nature intended for these gentle souls. They even have a post with brushes at different angles to allow the cows to satisfy an itch if they have one.

Here, we see Mildred using the brush, having a good old time, until she sees Colleen approaching. Colleen is a year or two older and enjoys a higher place in the pecking order among the girls here. Colleen asserts her seniority and Mildred moves away respectfully. Colleen then takes over the brush and scratches contentedly. It almost appears that Colleen is smiling as she has her turn at the scratching post.
