Sheep shearing photos

[captpackrat]

The pile of wool we sheared off the sheep.  All that wool served her well during the winter, but it must have been miserable the past few weeks.  The temperature the past couple days has been in the mid-90's with really high humidity, so this shearing probably saved her life.



She was totally blissed out from all the attention and the cool air.  She's usually a bit reluctant to allow anyone to touch her, but this time she was totally calm.



It's so warm and humid, the camera lens fogged up the instant I stepped outside.

Now they know they can come in and get cool; how are you going to keep them out? :D

When she was younger, she tried to come inside all the time (http://pics.livejournal.com/captpackrat/pic/000st1ba). I guess she knew we kept the sheep treats inside.
