One of my pass time activities I do usually when waiting on something is to look at show cattle on Facebook and try to score them in my head. There are some real super cattle out there thanks to modern genetics.

Lakenvelder koeien met kalfjes – Dutch Belted with calves

The colour markings are the main characteristic for the Lakenvelder. A Lakenvelder is either black or red, with a white belt over the middle. In Dutch this belt is described as 'laken' (sheet). The lakenvelder is a curious and quiet breed. The breed began to flourish in the Netherlands in the 17th century. The cattle were highly prized for their milking and fattening abilities. Nowadays, the Lakenvelder is a rare breed.
