A Visit to the Scottish Borders
Just an 8 hour drive and I am in Scotland. I am fortunate enough to stay in West Linton with views of the Pentland Hills.
The day was cold and bright. There were dogs to be walked
Or rather, dogs to be let out to run freely
This group of Highland cattle were not much fussed about us passing by
And quite happy to pose for a portrait shot
They are lovely docile creatures
These rams have done their work this year, and it won’t be long before the results are born
This lovely lady is one of many wives. They have to be hardy to survive out here.
Snow s expected tonight.




















Oh Lynne, it is so beautiful there. I’ve just found a blog from one of the Orkney Islands with a population of 27.
The photos are all wonderful. Can’t wait for you to get some action shots of Wendy and Trey for me.
Safe travels.

Gorgeous animals and landscapes. I’m always in awe of the highland cattle. Just beautiful!
