Wool, Wool

When the sheep graze, they often bunch together, leaning on each other with their heads down. I got close and took this shot of their wool, which is growing rapidly after their June shearing. The curls at the top belong to Rosemary, our white Romney and the carrier of some very beautiful wool. We are going to see the remaining ewe in the sheep taken from a farm after the owner was evicted. The remaining ewe, a gray Romney, needs rescuing, she is supposed to be a jumper (fence jumper) so we want to go take a look at her.

I think Red and I can handle her, but I want to make sure. We are fond of Izzy and Rosemary.
