Not such a black dog
Not such a black dog
Black Dog rock has recently become encrusted with tiny barnacles with its true colour just showing on top of the head of the dog-shaped rock. The prominent rock is part of the Belhelvie basic intrusion, being igneous bedrock formed between 485.4 and 443.8 million years ago during the Ordovician period.
