Sheepish by maggiemae

Sheepish

Not real sheep but almost - thats why they are sort of sheepish! At a Country Fair there were lots of stalls and items to buy including sets of farm animals made from wire and beads! These seemed to have such natural movement.

Three good things:
1. We bought some wonderful italian salami - John had several tastings just to make sure it was what we wanted.
2.I had a very nice glass of local white wine while wandering.
3. I didn't join in the Morris dancing!
Wonderful photo. They do look at ease there. Would loved to have seen a photo of you Morris dancing :)

so cool would love them in my garden!! I wonder what the dogs would think!

@joluise I don't really think they would smell like sheep so after a nose sniff they would wander away and say, What's new?

I would love to have a couple of them in my garden. What a great arty work.

I viewed larger and could see good detail of beading on sheep. They look pretty cool.

beautiful scene with the sheep! thought they were real for a moment! Someone has obviously gone to a lot of trouble to produce them.

Their positions do look very natural, obviously made by someone very skillful. Love the light and composition in your shot.

Haha~! They're quite popular in South Africa as well. At least, one always sees them for sale along the roads, but I dont know anyone who has actually bought one!
