haha! howdy Trudee! Being raised on a cattle farm and ranch I've always been amused with them because they are very curious about us. If you pull up and start doing something in the pasture they'll all come and watch. I don't know if they have much in the way of "thoughts" though. lol. But they ARE photogenic!
I am inclined to agree with you. They don't give the impression that they are highly intelligent. Where as horses, you can have a descent conversation with them. lol.
