Somewhere between Broadway and Mauzy/Lacey Springs, Anna Maria and I passed a herd of cattle with some of these long haired cows. I asked her what kind it was and she said, "I don't know. I call them Oreo cookie cows...actually I heard someone else call them that ..." (photo by Anna Maria). Sunday evening update: After seeing this post, my friend Michelle (from the Finger Lakes in NY) said this is a belted galloway, or a brown belted galloway (as in a brown cow with a white belt). These cows are mostly used as beef cattle. Since upstate New York is dairy country, I am thinking she is a very reliable source. Don't you just want to hug this cow? Doesn't he look soft, kind of like a huge teddy bear?
