Caithness – sheep and dolphins

Just after leaving the Castle of Mey we met a traffic jam – Caithness style – sheep. They were being moved from one field to another one down the road a bit.

Yes the road ahead was full of sheep.

There was a teeny wee Border collie pup dancing on the end of its lead, probably its first outing with the sheep, but it hardly took its eyes off the shepherd.

It’s not the most beautiful scenery in Scotland, but just a bit further south you reach the Moray Firth, I’d like to spend some time there to watch the wildlife, it’s famous for dolphins amongst other things.

I found this You Tube video of the dolphins there, but I’d like to see it in person.

  1. Absolutely delightful dolphins ! I used to have a border collie just like that puppy , they really are such a special and clever breed of dog . Have a great weekend !

    • Joan,
      Apparently you can always see dolphins right in close to the beach like that in the Moray Firth. Of course there are sheep all over the place here!
