In the first year of Greensboro Daily Photo, we photographed these cows on Stanley Huff Road, near Bunch Road. It is nice to know that twelve years later, cows are still there. If you consider how much Greensboro has changed over the last decade, and how much rural acreage has been developed, it is pretty amazing this pastureland is still farmed. Just across the street are the modern, energy-efficient homes of Gary Jobe.
The cow in the front of the photo published previously on GDP appears to have longer horns than the one above; however, it could be that the ones today aren’t as close. As best we can tell, these cows are Scottish Highland kyloe and a group of them is called a fold. Change can be good, but it can be comforting to see something on an ongoing basis. Curiously, these kyloe seem more likely to be in the front field when it is a cold, rainy, winter day.
