Lovely scene though that partially shorn lamb looks odd. Have you ever seen how a lamb is shorn? It's interesting to watch (if the shearer knows what he or she is doing).
Little Lamb, who made thee Does thou know who made thee Gave thee life & bid thee feed. By the stream & o'er the mead; Gave thee clothing of delight, Softest clothing woolly bright; Gave thee such a tender voice. Making all the vales rejoice: Little Lamb who made thee Does thou know who made thee
Little Lamb I'll tell thee, Little Lamb I'll tell thee; He is called by thy name, For he calls himself a Lamb: He is meek & he is mild, He became a little child I a child & thou a lamb, We are called by His name, Little Lamb God bless thee, Little Lamb God bless thee.
avant la chaleur on les déshabille ! j'ai aperçu un poème de William Blake dans les commentaires mais la traduction automatique n'est pas au top... j'aime beaucoup ce poète malheureusement "je ne cause pas anglais" !!!

It looks like the shearing crew took a lunch break before finishing that poor sheep in the middle of the foreground.
ReplyDeleteLooks like such an idyllic farm scene.

ReplyDeleteWilliam Blake
Little Lamb, who made thee
Does thou know who made thee
Gave thee life & bid thee feed.
By the stream & o'er the mead;
Gave thee clothing of delight,
Softest clothing woolly bright;
Gave thee such a tender voice.
Making all the vales rejoice:
Little Lamb who made thee
Does thou know who made thee
Little Lamb I'll tell thee,
Little Lamb I'll tell thee;
He is called by thy name,
For he calls himself a Lamb:
He is meek & he is mild,
He became a little child
I a child & thou a lamb,
We are called by His name,
Little Lamb God bless thee,
Little Lamb God bless thee.
The Lamb
William Blake
Fuzzy little sheep.
ReplyDeleteI imagine they feel a lot for comfortable now they have had a trim!
ReplyDeleteSheep on the palace grounds? That's unexpected... Lovely photos, by the way!
ReplyDeleteLucky lucky sheep. I like how you call them "palace sheep." :)
ReplyDeleteHow do they decide where ti graze, it's amazing.

I wonder if they hate barber shops as much as me. Doubt it.
ReplyDeleteSuch a peaceful pastoral scene!
ReplyDeleteWhat a very lovely image Ciel, I wonder if this scene hasn't changed much over the years?
ReplyDeleteSchöne Komposition im ersten Foto, Ciel !
ReplyDeleteWir nennen diese die "Pamper" oder die "Pamperlen" :)
Do they sell the yarn? I could knit up something nice!
ReplyDeleteThe title made me laugh, Ciel! :-)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteI bet the sheep are feeling a bit more comfortable now that they are shorn. )
