Highlanders (2 x PiPs)

Highlanders (2 x PiPs)
Highland cattle (Scottish Gaelic: Bò Ghàidhealach; Scots: Heilan coo) are a Scottish cattle breed. They have long horns and long wavy coats that are coloured black, brindle, red, yellow, white, silver (looks white but with a black nose) or dun, and they are raised primarily for their meat. They originated in the Highlands and Western Isles of Scotland and were first mentioned in the 6th century AD. The first herd book described two distinct types of Highland cattle but, due to crossbreeding between the two, only one type now exists and is registered. They have since been exported worldwide.

The calf looks like he has recently got very wet, with his shaggy coat! The pictures go well together and your information is very interesting.

All the best,
Rosa.

Glad you like it Rosa, thanks for your kind comment. I was lucky with this one, he/she spent most of the time, quite rightly, head down and eating!

What handsome cattle. I would think they might appreciate having the hair above their eyes trimmed a bit.

Doug Shepherd club has replied to Ronald Losure club
Thanks very much for your visit Ronald. I imagine the hair is good at keeping flies and other insects out of their eyes. Especially the midges in Scotland!

Oh how did I miss these beautiful images Doug. A delight to see. They have made my day!

Doug Shepherd club has replied to Ecobird club
Thanks so much for your visit and kind comment Carol. I was surprised to see them myself. There was four of five of them in a field with a mixture of other young cattle. In a separate field there was similar number of adult females plus a bull. Not a sight I'd expected to see at Ravenscar!

Enjoy the rest of the weekend, Doug
