Sheep shearing with James and Malcom

by Leave a Comment

I was a on a recce, when suddenly I see the whole gang coming towards a beautiful wooden barn. Yes, it was James and Malcom. As soon I saw them I knew that I was going to witness a new adventure. It is ALWAYS an experience to see James and Malcom working together . It never failed to make me laugh. I was lucky, they were going to shear two hundred sheep….

Here they are. Getting the sheep ready. James took the opportunity to worm the sheep.
The whole setup is ready, let`s bring the sheep
The two shearer were working very fast. it was very interesting to watch.
The fleece are checked for holes….
Not an easy thing to do…
After the fleece is roll into a ball and place in a big bag
You can see the bags in the background

While I was waiting for “my” rabbits a skylark landed in front of me. The bird was looking for food in a sea of wheat….
