I was definitely being watched by these four as I skirted the field trying to get some shots of them. They usually just turn their backs and ignore me, but they have little ones to protect at the moment, and so are very skittish, watching your every move!
Whenever I see a highland cow I have to take a photo. I'm always looking for the perfect picture which is difficult because they are always minding their own business, as you say! I would be delighted if I'd taken this picture, I'm quite jealous!
I recently posted some pictures of Highland cattle. Love them!
