It's a slow process. . .

Since there's basically a buffet on the way.

Notice how quickly the shepherd guy and the pace donkey ended up ahead of the flock?

Want to see more woollies? You'll find all the sheep photos posted so far this year here. And that cute overload known as lambing season can be found right here.

  6. What beautiful picture's of the sheep grazing. I love the scenery, and the dogs seem to be enjoying themselves also.
