Perhaps he was cowering under a bush with his dad?
My apologies.

Is there a place where we can re-watch the livestream of the event? I didn't get to see the livestream but I'd love to see a video.
Isabella and Josephine didn't seem that impressed with the smells, though it looked as if Vincent didn't seem to mind as much as his sisters. Love the anecdotes of them telling Mary that it smelt, that's very cute.
I love Josephine's facial expression in this photo.  It seems that like little Estelle in Sweden, she's another little royal who is rather expressive.

Can you watch this clip from the regional news? Øko-køer på græs til kongelige tilråb - Lorry - Nyheder - REGIONEN
There were 8.000 spectators present.
An estimated 200.000 went to see the cows on grass at the 75 eco farms that opened for the public for the day.
The farmer stated that there is a rodeo cowboy inside Vincent.

It was a nice event to bring the children and they are indeed some expressive and involved kids which always make them so fun to watch. Looks like it's never boring with them around
Christian? We know Christian goes to football and that it's his father who goes with him to the football rallies. Or he simply left the smelly cows and cow dung for his younger siblings!

This picture need much more attention. A good way to teach the children and it already seems so natural for them.

Fun to have seen live stream and can give little information about the pictures:
Picture of Vincent and Josephine eating a little yogurt snack with milk from the cows - before they nicely asked Mom if it was okay they could get that yogurt.

Mary had three lively children to watch, hundreds of Danes around while the event's two organizers told and told her about their products. And then it can suddenly become too much and Mary was about to go home with the carton milk she in a moment forgot she had in her hand  She delivered it back with a laugh and a "oh, I guess it's not supposed I should have this milk with home."

Thanks Polyesco.
This picture is the best IMO. Zoom in on Bella. Smiling quietly. A very sweet picture.
And in case you haven't noticed, elaborate braids is high fashion these days among girls.
ADDED: A nice long video from BB: http://www.billedbladet.dk/kongelige...ig-til-oekodag
The pet-calf is named Sulle and she isn't that certain about all the attention. And Vincent yelling in a very Copenhagener accent suggest the calf would rather join the others.
At 1:25 or so someone calls out Mary's name and she obligingly look up and wave.
2:50 cutting ribbons is an art and Bella hasn't quite mastered it yet, even with the help of her younger siblings so mor Mary had to help. As Roskilde pointed out Vincent was perfectly willing to do the cutting himself, but there are perks in being the older sister...
Towards the very end, you can clearly hear Vincent (standing on the fence as always...) repeating "løb = run" to each and every cow. There were more than 200 eco-cows there, so that must have amounted to a lot of "run's"!
- Now, this naturally isn't just for fun and a nice Sunday outing. Ecological farming is serious business and big business I might add! Especially in regards to export.
With the increasing consumer awareness on animal welfare this is something DK is also working hard on and even though ecological products are expensive there are plenty of consumers out there willing to pay extra to ensure that the animals have had a good life. (Even down to the life-story of the individual cow!).

Judging from Josephine's facial expressions Bella might have a competitor.

This video is definitely worth seeing  Many nice little moments.
Some bubbly and natural children and every time we see them I'm pleased to see how comfortable and confident they all four now are with both the press and all the people looking at them. I especially notice the little family photo session around 3:25 into the video where we see they are completely comfortable and has a very natural approach towards the press. Vincent even with his arms in the air. Christian is a clear example too. A very confident boy. Well done, F&M. We know how much Frederik struggled with this already from when he was a little boy.

How fun! Josephine the city girl was not sure about that cow especially when it tried to kiss her but Vincent is a little cowboy in disguise and Mary in a classic mom moment snatching those scissors when her daughter was flinging them around. Was Christian at school then or maybe having a boys day with dad?

Wow I am exhausted just looking at that video! Wonderful children but keeping them in line and safe and smiling the whole time? Mary is amazing.

Very cute pictures and videos.
Vincent seems like a country boy. All 4 look like they enjoy animals and nature.
of the picture of Vincent and Josephine eating, it looks like Vincent is left handed?
I noticed this a bit during the Greenland trip to, Vincent using his left hand more

Have noticed as well. He also draws with the left hand. BB has also mentioned that he seems to be left-handed.

It appears that the twins love climbing!
And an extra thanks for providing the longer video from Billed Bladet, Muhler. What was Vincent saying at the beginning of the video, when Isabella and Josephine were stroking the cow? I loved how Josephine seemed a bit unsure about the cow at first, but then seemed to be brave and have a go at stroking it. Very cute.
It appears that Josephine will be like her older sister Isabella in the near future in personality (and they also look quite alike, IMO).

Vincent was saying "Mom, I go inside to the other cows" and as Muhler says with a true Copenhagener accent
