Scottish Highland Cattle

[Trent Watts]

These iconic cattle were not abundant in our exploration of a small area of Scotland so it was a delight to see these two on the Isle of Skye.

Nice captures Trent, that is a handsome pair of Scottish highland cows; TFS.

Looks like they need a haircut. How can they see with all the hair over their eyes.

That first one with the shaggy hair over its eyes is a classic. Nice captures in both of these.

Hey Trent,

I misread your title as Scottish Highland Castle.... I was all hyped for castles. Cattle are pretty cool too though, especially these types of cattle.

I like both of these, #1 is my favorite, though I think I would autofill out that wire/cable in the upper right.

Thanks Jim.. Not sure why I missed that cable. It is so obvious. I spent some time removing barb wire fence from the picture that I missed the cable. DuHHHH.

Ha ha, I know how that goes.

Did you go to Scotland to capture these? Now that you have posted these, it reminded me that I actually photographed some Highland Cattle here in the US last year, I just have to remember where.....

I have admired these iconic cattle for some time. So it is a huge THANK YOU for posting your exceptional photos, Trent

Those are some hairy beasties! They look like a cross between longhorn cattle and yaks.

I love them!
