When the cows come home (Lincoln through the lens, 11/25/14)

November 25, 2014

Jim, an English Lineback ox, takes a snack break during his recent walk from Minute Man National Historical Park, where he and some other bovins graze on open space, back to their home with the Travis family on Oxbow Road. Jim and another calf were a birthday surprise for George Travis 13 years ago; he now weighs about 3,400 pounds (Jim, not George). The Travises own several other English Linebacks along with some Highlands and Irish Dexters and periodically move them back and forth to the Minute Man land.  — Photo by Harold McAleer
