Corrimony Chambered Cairn - 2

As I walked down the lane towards the cairn, I saw some cattle resting in a field.



Suddenly, I was greeted by a local piper out practicing...



...and at this sound the cattle rose to their feet and stood in a straight line.



It was a most remarkable sight! Apparently highland cattle love the sound of the bagpipes. Do click on this final photo - it is most impressive!

Were the cows concerned about curdling their milk?
