Actually the biggest of the bunch stayed bedded behind the rocks so no close ups of him. I am not up on my rams so I dont know the quality of animal I am looking at with sheep.

Good looking rams, I recognize most of them, doesn't look like the larger ones were with that herd, always fun to see sheep though.

All of the larger ones had traffic stopped for a couple minutes the other day licking salt in the middle of the road.  They've been right there for over a month now, and thankfully I haven't heard any reports of them getting whacked.
