First Place

Isle of Skye, Scotland Highland Cows in pasture in the mountainsHighland Coos

One of Scotland’s trademark icons are the highland cows (called coos by the locals). They are harder to find than you’d think; we stumbled on this herd accidentally in a rural area in the highlands. They took the term “gentle giant” quite literally and had a line of us waiting to offer them a pet and some greens.
