Farmer Georg Herbst , left, and his grandson Thomas lead decorated cows back to their farm in Au near Lofer, in the Austrian province of Salzburg, on Saturday, Sept. 4, 2010. The farmers spent the summer together with their cattle in huts up on alpine pastures. Traditionally, the animals are only decorated when the farmer's family and the herd enjoyed good health over the summer. (AP Photo/Kerstin Joensson)
