1. "Until the cows come home" At one point the herd became quite orderly following this leader along the centre of the road. The queue of cows extended all the way back to that pink gate in the distance. #cows #dairy #farming #Transylvania 
2. Note the white stork's nest to the right of the photo. Hard to see at this distance but there is a stork crouched in that nest.
3. Most villagers have a cow in this village each morning they let them out from their barns and onto the street to join the village herd. A herdsman then takes care of them whilst they graze on communal meadows (for a small fee).
4. In the evening he returns them to the edge of the village where they make their own way home. Some villagers leave their gates open so their cow can walk straight into the yard while other villagers stand in front of their gate to wait for them.
5. Occasionally if a villager forgets then the cow will stand at the gate 'mooing' until someone opens it.
