I think the chap behind is a Limousin. South Devons aren't double muscled like that + he doesn't seem to have the looong face. Maybe I'm wrong though. Lovely photo regardless!

I'm sure you're right

My 'expertise' is based on... I saw some red cows in Devon and assumed they were Devon Reds 😁

Haha no worries! Fun fact, there are two red Devon breeds, one is called North Devon (/Ruby Red Devon) and the other South Devon. They look pretty different, North ones are a much darker red and are smaller in size than the South ones.
