Angela's Rambles: My "Heeland Coo"

My favorite souvenir that I brought home from Scotland is my "Heeland Coo" (Highland Cow). He is made out of wood, is hand painted, and is about the size of a standard pencil topper! He needs a good, strong, Scottish name. I am now taking suggestions.

Here are some pictures:

Isn't he CUTE?!?!
