A farmer is in a dimly lit barn, milking his cow into a tin bucket…
He’s finally settled into a good rhythm, humming a little tune to himself as the cow lazily flicks her tail.
Suddenly, a fly zips into the barn, darting like it’s late for an insect meeting…
The farmer swats at it half-heartedly, muttering, “Can’t a guy milk in peace?”
But the fly seems to take this as a challenge…
It zooms circles around his head, dives toward his face, then veers off like a jet pilot.
Annoyed but determined, the farmer tries to ignore it and get back to work…
Suddenly, the fly swoops down and without warning, zooms straight into the cow’s ear!
The farmer freezes mid-squirt, staring at the cow…
She doesn’t flinch, just chews her cud like she’s too dignified to acknowledge the intrusion.
The farmer shrugs. “Weird,” he says to himself, returning to his task…
But just as he’s getting back into his rhythm, something plops into the bucket.
He leans forward, peering into the fresh milk…
Floating there, legs up and wings soaked, is the fly.
The farmer blinks, processing what just happened…
Then it hits him!
“Well, I’ll be,” he mutters…
“Went in one ear and out the udder!”
