Tour Scotland photograph of daffodils by the Doocot near Glamis Castle, Scotland. This Doocot, built like an actual house, was intended to house pigeons or doves, which were an important food source in Scottish history. Doocots may be square or circular, or even built into the end of a house or barn and generally contained pigeonholes where the birds nested. The birds were kept both for their eggs, flesh, and dung.
