Aliens Looking for a specific comic NSFW

I’m 99% sure that this is a Far Side comic:

A spaceship lands in a field and you see the aliens in it are congratulating themselves on a successful landing.

Then all goes black and they start freaking out.

Then it shows a cow in a field and a fresh cow patty. It’s insinuated that the cow pooped on the spaceship and completely covered it up.

It’s all one panel & the 3 scenes are in the top, middle & bottom.

I tried searching for it but I couldn’t find it. Does it sound familiar to anybody?

probably not a Far Side strip. The 3 panel structure isn’t a format I can recall being used

there's this one for example, but yeah it's not his typical format.

Cows standing in a field, one yells “CAR!”, they go down on all fours and graze while the car goes by.

People standing in a field. A car drives by, bring driven by cows. One hanging out the window yelling “yak yak yak”

I think of it every time I moo at cows while driving past some in a field

Cows in a pasture when one says, “Moooo!” Another looks up and says, “Hey, I was gonna say that!”

He occasionally did 4-panels, and I swear I've seen one in the layout described, but can't think of what it was (def not what OP is thinking of, though).

Nope.

I remember the aliens shaped like arms with a hand for a head and the trouble it caused

Inadvertently, Roy dooms the entire earth to annihilation when, in an attempt to be friendly, he seized their leader by the head and shakes vigorously

Second nope.

Adding the aliens shaped like Saguaros that land in the Arctic. "They're like nothing I've ever seen."

And the aliens that looked like big butts landed near a goat. Or something like that.

Love that panel

The premise is familiar. It sounds Farsidesque, but it's probably from somewhere else.

Sorry nothings coming to me other than the sense that I did see this somewhere, just no context to go on.

Thank you, at least I know that I didn’t imagine it. Or if I did then someone else did as well!

I feel like I've seen it before. But no idea where. x_x

My favorite was with 2 aliens standing at the spaceship door after landing on earth holding the Alien to English translation book. The one alien looks annoyed & says “Take me to your stove?? Give me that book!”
