Livestock

HB and I had a pleasant drive on Monday, out exploring Tortola. Our observations confirmed that all of Tortola is one big farm.


















This fairly large herd of cows seemed unusual somehow as we drove by. It wasn't until I looked at the photo afterwards that I realized it's because they're confined -- penned in by barbed wire -- rather than strolling nonchalantly in the road as usual. I wonder if the confinement is one of the causes of the skinny appearance of this herd?


























The cattle egret was living up to his name admirably.




























Since the roadcows were not, in fact, roadcows, we had to content ourselves with this brindled roadgoat instead.
