Big Friendly Giant
We have two highland cow collections and so if you identify yourself with being a gruff but gentle soul then you are hands down, a highland cow! If you are also all about fresh air, beautiful scenery and spending quality time with loved ones then you will love the items we have in our Highland Cow Love collection!
Did you know..? Highland cattle are the oldest registered cattle breed in the world!
Kingfisher
A highly territorial bird, this brightly coloured bird likes nothing more than to sit perched on the branch of a willow tree overlooking calm waters where it misses absolutely nothing – for each eye is used separately and so if it sees someone else encroaching on their turf they will be sure to notice! Thought dainty in size, this bird can eat, around 60% of its body weight per day to be exact!
Did you know..? Kingfishers start dating in the Spring!
Butterfly
Beginning life as a bit of an ugly duckling (or, caterpillar) they grow into eye-catching, and quite often colourful insects. Not only are butterflies incredibly beautiful but they also play a crucial role in the plant world for they help flowers, vegetables and fruits to produce new seeds by carrying pollen from plant to plant.
Did you know..? Butterflies are unable to fly if their body temperature is below 86 degrees.
Festive Robin
Like a lot of birds, robins are highly territorial and can make their home almost anywhere. Like, literally anywhere – from the apple tree in your back garden to the engine in your car. Despite their ability to lose their temper faster than they can take off – they are actually friendly little things and will happily feed from your hand, once a level of trust has been established.
Did you know..? Because part of their coats were red, Victorian postmen used to be known as ‘robins’. When sending Christmas cards became fashionable in the 1840s postmen would get nick-named the ‘Christmas Robins’.
Atlantic Puffin
Puffins are sociable birds when on land, they will hang out in large numbers chatting with anyone who will listen – they’re also quite nosey too! At sea however, they like nothing but peace and quiet and will quite happily relax on their own with no distractions. Are you the same where you like being in a big crowd as well as enjoy solitary peace from time to time? If you do then our range of puffin gifts are perfect for you!
Did you know..? Baby puffins are called pufflings!
Trusty Highland Cow
Dependable, trusty and protective, the highland cow is often perceived to be fierce as a result of its hardy exterior but is in fact a gentle and docile creature.
Did you know?…the highland cow responds well to human contact and has the longest hair of any cattle breed?
Woodland Creature
A free-spirited creature happy to be in the company of others and enjoying nothing more than pottering about in your garden and foraging for food to use in your next cooking creation. If this sounds like you then you might just love our fox, red squirrel, wild rabbit and hedgehog themed products within our woodland creatures collection!
Did you know?…adult hedgehogs can have as many as 5000 yellow-tipped spines!
