IRVINE man Kevin Lundy was expecting a spectacular show when he travelled to Prestwick ahead of the RAF Red Arrows landing at the airport.
But before he even reached his destination, he encountered a completely different spectacle.
As he travelled along the A79 along past the runways, Kevin's attention was taken in a different direction - to the grass between the two carriageways.
That was because sprinting along the area between the two carriageways was a black bullock.
Travelling at quite some pace, it appears it must have been close to the Red Arrows' arrival time - because they were certainly getting a moo-ve on.
Kevin shared footage of the encounter with our sister paper the Ayr Advertiser, showing the animal shifting along the the busy road.
It is not clear whether the animal has been captured and safely returned to its field.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
