This handmade copper weather vane depicts a variation on our Charging Bull weathervane with the bull in a more deliberative, upright position. The customer who commissioned this weathervane design requested that it be made with nickel silver horns in our Extra-Large four-foot size. One set of photos shows the bull with our standard oversized brass directionals. The other versions show the weathervane with the custom made nickel silver directionals also commissioned from us by this customer. The last picture was graciously sent to us by our customer after the weathervane had been installed. You can actually see the very early stages of the patina process in this photo..

 

Cattle (often called cows in vernacular and contemporary usage, or kye as the Scots plural of cou) are domesticated ungulates, a member of the subfamily Bovines of the family Bovidae. They are raised as livestock for meat (called beef and veal), dairy products (milk), leather and as draught animals (pulling carts, plows and the like). In some countries, such as India, they are subject to religious ceremonies and respect. It is estimated that there are 1.3 billion head of cattle in the world today.

 

Cows - Cattle are ruminants, meaning that they have a digestive system that allows them to utilize otherwise undigestible foods by repeatedly regurgitating and rechewing them as "cud." The cud is then reswallowed and further digested by specialized microorganisms that live in the rumen. These features allow cattle to thrive on grasses and other vegetation 

 

A Bull is an adult male of various large animal species including moose, bovines (esp. cattle), elephants, whales, seals, and sealions. An interesting fact about bulls is that they are color blind. Thus, the common belief that bulls hate the color red is untrue.
