Sheep in my street


We live in a small old city and we live within the boundaries of the first city wall, so you could say we live in the center. Big was my surprise when I first heard the sound of sheep passing by underneath my living room window. The sheep are a flock that keeps the greens in order that are part of this city, an environmental friendly way of managing the grassy parts in the city. When the flock moves from the north to the south part (or vice versa) of town they pass through our street. By now they are welcomed guests, and miss E. loves to see them pass by and so do I.

    1. I believe it has to do with love making ;-) It tells which sheep had a lovely night/day with which ram.
