Mountain Goat in winter


The feral goats in Scotland are the descendants of the domestic goat but they now are truly wild. Normally they like to roam the hills in small heard, mate in the autumn and the kids are born in January. I was walking in the Trossachs yesterday and was delighted to see this small heard had survived the cold winter
