Guess I can't keep showing off our desert scenery
all the time
so here, for a change, are our new arrivals
on the farm
a bit skittish yet
a small mob of Merino sheep to augment our depleted flock
getting curious and taking an interest in their photo-op
the next lot is scheduled for next week.
Linking with
how cute! hope they adjust to their new place well!
ReplyDeleteLove it. Though I doubt that I would ever tire of desert magic.
ReplyDeleteThat second photo made me smile how they are all looking at your taking their photo. Wonderful shots Arija, lovely sheep.
ReplyDeleteI can see they are going to be good posers!
ReplyDeleteEverything looks very green and almost English. I love watching animals getting acquainted with new pastures.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots and love seeing the flock of sheep.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful landscape shot! ♥

ReplyDeleteall the lovely merino sheep and wool you have it just outside i think you are a lucky soul , greetings from Denmark
ReplyDeleteI'd be quite happy with lots more desert scenery ;>]
ReplyDeletebut these 4-leggers are very fine indeed !
And just look at how full the pond [reservoir?] is now !!
They are so cute! I think they will love their new home.. Thanks for sharing your world, have a happy week!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful scenic photos of your farm and the new sheep. They do look curious!
ReplyDeleteGreat shots.
ReplyDeleteA very pastoral scene, lovely! (Based on your comment on my blog, I don't think you'd have enjoyed the real submarine I went on in Hawaii, going over 100 feet below the surface and viewing shipwrecks - I'll have to post those photos one day.)
ReplyDeleteGreat pics. I remember when I was a kid in Utah in the US Mountain West when the sheep would be moved between their winter and summer pastures. It would clog the roads sometimes.
ReplyDeleteMany of the sheep seemed to be smiling for the camera. lol.
ReplyDeleteI see a bit of fine Merino wool here.
ReplyDeleteThey look pretty comfortable in their new home. ... And why not? All that beautiful green grass and water. Perfect.
