While I freely acknowledge that I am no wildlife photographer, I do on the odd occasion have a desire to capture on camera something that tinkles me and that definitely includes the hairy Highland Coos (cows).

 

I, like many people, find them hugely photogenic and they seem to possess an outgoing character not really seen in regular cows. Mind you, have eight of them surrounding your minibus once on location and have them bellow and growl (do these cows growl? lol), then they take on a different look, definitely more menacing than the cute facial hair would show.
