On the drive down Canaan Road to the Harwoods Hole track, we rounded a bend and found a fold of Highland cattle grazing on the corner. The term “fold” is used for a herd of Highland cattle because, in Scotland, they used to be kept in stone shelters called folds during winter to protect them from the cold and predators. This guy was up against the fence, right in the corner of the paddock, looking down onto the road, with a great view of anything passing by. This elevated view also made him look enormous.
