May Words - Black and White

Shearing Day
Our sheep shearer normally comes to the farm with another shearer but came alone today. so it was good that our son-in-law, Tim, was available to help.
This was the first time he sheared sheep and quite enjoyed himself. He said he had fun, and was glad he was able to cross it off his bucket list of things to do. But then he immediately said it was not an experience he wanted to do again

Nice documentary shot! How often do sheep need shearing?

@blueace We shear and trim their feet every spring. It's an annual chore - and they look so clean and white when they are done!

Great action capture. I cannot imagine how much work it must be to shear a sheep, let alone a whole flock! Despite being a dog groomer I cannot say I have ever aspired to shear a sheep.
