OUR WORLD - The new flock


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.

    Love it. Though I doubt that I would ever tire of desert magic.

    Everything looks very green and almost English. I love watching animals getting acquainted with new pastures.

    I'd be quite happy with lots more desert scenery ;>]
    but these 4-leggers are very fine indeed !
    And just look at how full the pond [reservoir?] is now !!

    A 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.)

    Great 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.

    They look pretty comfortable in their new home. ... And why not? All that beautiful green grass and water. Perfect.
