The Scottish Highlanders are a beloved subject for photographers and for the wall.

The calf is so young that it has not yet received any ear tags. I don't want to disturb the herd and, especially when there are youngsters, keep a sufficient distance. Fortunately, I have a telephoto lens and don't have to go too close to take the picture.
