Walking back to our car after our visit to the Autumn Fair in Bourtange, we saw a shepherd with his flock of sheep coming towards us.

They are pretty! I wonder what their wool is like?
BeantwoordenVerwijderenDid the sheep alone attract all that interest? They appear to have gathered quite a "following". :-)
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThose people are on their way to the old market square of Bourtange, to the Autumn fair. It looks indeed like they are following the sheep! :)
VerwijderenThe dog certainly looks like he knows how to take charge of sheep.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenLeuk is dat he, als stadsmens vind ik dit altijd zo bijzonder om te zien. We hebben ze nu ook in Almere en ik ga steeds even kijken als ze in de buurt staan.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThis would be a nice situation.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI have never seen a sheep on the road (and never saw so many at the same time).
Lovely photos.
This brings back memories when I was about 4 or 5 living in Scotland. Herds were brought down the street. The slaughterhouse was down at the end.
