Sheep Business

It's been a busy time around here.



Spring has been and gone - wet and warm mostly so lots of grass.  The sheep were in the driveway paddock last week.



As you can see the grass is well up round their bellies - not that they seem to mind.



They had it mowed and any low hanging branches on the trees trimmed within a day.



Then my four legged gardeners were off to tame the next paddock before shearing begins.

  16. I love how green and not snowy everything is. It is amazing how much they can eat and so much better for the environment than a lawn mower....Michelle
