Cow Weathervane, Scottish Highland Cow
This handsome copper weather vane depicts an all copper Scottish Highland Cow with gold leafed accents. In addition to gilding the horns, we also put our customer’s name in golden letters on the arrow fletching. In addition to the cow, we also made the same customer a Scottish Highland Bull weathervane. This ancient breed of cattle, which originated in Scotland, is known for their shaggy coats and long horns. Our customer was gracious enough to send us photos of his large Cow weathervane after it was installed on top of a cupola over his 3-car garage.
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.
