Sheep wearing Neck Scarf

It is very wet, cold, and raw outside my cottage and everything is covered with ice. I am sure the local sheep would welcome scarves if they were outside but hopefully they are all in their barns. via
Enjoy the Grammys tonight and don't forget to watch VICTORIA too. xo

Racka Sheep with Unique Spiral Horns

Racka Sheep is a unique breed with both ewes and rams possessing long spiral shaped horns.The breed comes from Hungary and is used for milk and wool. Mature males may have horns as long as two feet or more. The cork-screw horns protrude almost straight upward from the top of the head. They look old and wise, don't they? via

PS -- I watched the new PBS series The Durrells in Corfu last night and LOVED it.

Big Shade Tree with Sheep

via
I think it's exciting to think about leaves on the trees, don't you? That storm we had a couple of nights ago knocked down some big branches that Webster and I have already picked up on one of our walks. Yesterday felt like spring in the early part of the day but got colder as the day progressed. I pruned my Limelight hydrangeas and now I'm ready for them to start putting out new growth. Happy Friday. xo

Feeling Sheepish

Sheep and fog, my two favorite things. This is such a great photo, showing the contrast between congestion and seclusion. Sheep know best! They just keep climbing until there's breathing room.

Donkey with Dolan Lamb Papoose

These are the world's most expensive sheep, costing in the millions each, being purchased by wealthy Chinese as pets. Better not let their feet touch the ground until these rare lambs can travel in a pack and not get hurt! Read more about Dolan Sheep here and herephoto source

Sheep at Rest on A Stone Wall

A gorgeous photo of a sheep in repose. They know how to get comfy in the most unlikely places, for sure. I am beginning to think sheep enjoy finding odd places to enjoy the view and then wait for someone to walk by and so they can pose for a picture. I'm glad this scene didn't go unnoticed. via

A Beautiful Pet Sheep

I'm assuming sheep is a pet because of the collar. The floral wreath is another clue that this animal is loved.

A Lovely Scene in the English Countryside

I honestly can't tell if the gentleman on the tractor is driving the sheep or trying to get around them. Either way, this photograph is wonderful. Just look at that newly plowed field in the background! via
