International visitors are not so hard to find in the arena and in the crowd at International Dairy Week.
While the most prominent are perhaps the high-profile judges, from the US, Canada and Europe, there is a fair smattering of overseas visitors who have IDW marked on their calendar.
Maci Crothers, 14, is from New York and was working as a handler for the Anderson family from Numurkah. She is visiting Australia with her parents who have a farm in the US.
The IDW event photographer is Julie Ashton, from Chicago.
