cow patty
Bovine waste pile
A cow patty is a flat, circular deposit of cow dung found in pastures and fields.
The shape results from the loose consistency of cattle manure hitting the ground.
Dried cow patties become firm enough to pick up or step on without mess—fresh ones are another matter.
Watch where you step—that field is full of cow patties.
