Title: Sheep Herd
Post by: hunterbuilder on February 01, 2008, 10:26:50 PM: Went for a quick drive after work on Thursday and ran across this herd of rams. Being this close to all those sheep that were not at a feeding station was really cool. This first bunch were just 40-50yds off the road below me and then ran down and up the other side.

Here's one with my modified zoom (pentax camera through my pentax binocs).
As I drove a bit closer the second one was just walking up the road. He had a bit of a gimp to his stride and seemed really stiff.

And some of the herd browsing on the shrubs and grasses about 75 yds off the road.
