It’s a common thing in the US, not unlike birdwatching. My grandfather loved going out and watching for cows. Then he would come home and tell us all about the cows he saw. Did you know there are like, 150 native species of cow in the US? Back in the early days you could just go out and get milk from wild cows. Now, however, they’re overexploited and so you rarely see wild cows.
Seeing the Guatemalan cow of paradise is a big deal for cow spotters
Maybe this is because I’m swiss and I spent my childhood looking at and taking care of cows.
But is the joke that “cowatching” sounds absurd.
It’s also a play on birdwatching and a bonus pun referencing the Bird of Paradise flower, and also “yes.”
Isn’t it referencing the birds rather than the flower? They are known for their impressive plumage.
Oh shit yeah probably, didn’t know it was a bird and a flower, and I only know the flower because of Viva Piñata 1 lol.
It’s also a cow!
