My mom used to tell me (on long car trips out in the country) to look for the cow-pigs. They were cows with curly tails and pink spots. I would stare out the window forever looking for one (Funny how she always saw them just when I was losing interest but they would always be far off in the distance and I would have to look really carefully for more.)
