Titled "Scottish Cow Poetry in Pictures," this collection features stunning photographs of coos taken on the Scotland NC500 road trip, each accompanied by a witty limerick-style poem.
What sets this book apart is that each coo picture has been given a unique name, adding a personal touch and bringing each animal to life. Some of the names are whimsical, such as "Goldielockscoo" and "Benthorncoo," while others, like the "Bigtonguecoo," have a mischievous edge. Each picture captures the unique personality and spirit of the animal, highlighting the rugged beauty of Scotland's countryside.
The accompanying poems are just as delightful, written in a limerick style that captures the playful spirit of the coos. Some are humorous, like the poem about "Peakaboocoo" who loves to play hide and seek with passersbys. Others are even more playful, like the poem about when the five coo's go on an adventure across the Scottish country side
Through his photographs and poems, the creator Walter Shepherd of Scottish Macqueen heritage celebrates the connection between Scotland and their beloved coos. These animals have been a part of Scotland's cultural heritage for centuries, and now are found being grazed in places across outback Australia. Their rugged beauty and gentle demeanor have captured the hearts of people around the world.
The fact that these photographs were taken on the Scotland NC500 road trip adds another layer of charm to the book. This famous route takes visitors on a journey through some of Scotland's most breathtaking scenery, and the coos that call this area home are a cherished part of that experience.
Overall, "Scottish Cow Poetry in Pictures" is a delightful tribute to one of Scotland's most beloved animals.
