I have been known to OVER think things....yah...just a tad. But my brain went to what TYPE of cow is this....looked through some images...decided on Hereford (I know nothing about cows so probably off base) which took me to the Midlands of England....smack in the middle of that is Birmingham. Okay...So thought Birmingham, Alabama. What's in Birmingham, Alabama?! Well....we have the Birmingham Civil Rights Institute, The Southern Museum of Flight, The Civil Rights District, The Statue of Liberty Replica, The Thomas Jefferson Tower. Those are just the ones that stood out to me. Like I said...I'm sure I'm way off base...but it was a fun rabbit hole! LOL! But then you go back to What are the Midlands, UK known for....and this popped up: Why is West Midlands called the Black Country? The Black Country gained its name in the mid nineteenth century due to the smoke from the many thousands of ironworking foundries and forges plus also the working of the shallow and 30ft thick coal seams.
