Boys out to grass by happypat

Boys out to grass

Two massive tups pasturing in a field near us.
I was amazed at the size if the spotty one on the left...they are both big sheep but he is enormous!
I wasn’t sure what breed he was but I’m pretty much sure he is a Jacob.
Anybody know otherwise I would be interested to know.

Three good things:
1. Lots of jobs done in Garstang today....pretty quiet so it’s a good day to go.
2. Had my tyres checked today & I'm illegal....booked in tomorrow to have new front ones put on.
3. Lindt are doing a big tub of chocolates!
He does look like a big boy! Lovely tranquil landscape and light.

He is huge! I did jobs today and was OK until I hit the queue outside the post office. 25 minute wait to be allowed in!

@thistle01 That’s a very long time to stand there...a bit rainy here too.

I think it's a Jacob, my favourite breed of sheep. I love sheep.

Great capture

this is a beautifully clear picture, Pat! Colours are vibrant and focus is so good! I did read that Jacob sheep commonly have 4 horns!

@maggiemae Thanks Maggie..the light was good that day...my phone doesn’t do too badly with the camera!

@julzmaioro Yes I had a list today...walked as much as I could too to get my exercise after such a lazy day yesterday!

@susiemc Yes you’re right I think....Jacob!

Wow the sheep on the left looks as though he has been in a growbag.

Beautiful grass!

Beautiful light

I'd say Jacob. But I know nothing! Lovely capture though with the sun brightening the image through the clouds.

@onewing that’s right he does Babs...covered in bits of peat stuff!! 🤣

Glad to see you had some sun 👍

The one on the left is very impressive for his size. Beautiful shot and rural scene.

Looks like a Jacob. My friend used to keep those. Wonderful sheep!
December 15th, 2020  
He has lovely colouring! and I would also say he is not a "performing" ram! lol
Lovely shot
