Zuid-Kennemerland National Park (2)


Last week when driving through the park and having my digital camera with me, I took these shots of Highland Cows. Quite funny creatures and remarkably docile. Came within 2 meters of them one day (without having my camera with me) and they didn't flinch a muscle. Originally and as the name implies, this cattle comes from Scotland and has been released in the park to graze. I noticed there are two herds (folds), one consisting of bachelor bulls - those you see in the pictures - and one with the females and dominant bull.
