Stunning photo captures huge red deer herd in snow on Glenshee hill

A herd of stags and hinds were spotted in the snowy Glenshee mountains as the recent spell of wintry weather continues.

This stunning picture captured by Euan Cherry came as forecasters warned of further unsettled conditions over the coming days and into Monday.

Deer are known to congregate in the Glenshee area in large numbers, although experts believe they herd together when storms are looming.

Indeed, that may be borne out by the latest gathering of the herd, as Met Office warnings are in place for wind and rain, hail and sleet showers for many parts of the UK.

Sunday is expected to be less windy, but Monday could bring a spell of wet and windy weather and further hill snow to northern parts.
