One of these sheep...

Salisbury, UK

...is not like the other ones.
One of these sheep is not the same.

A lady I met, whilst walking round the Harnham Water Meadows,
told me that the llama is there to protect the sheep from predators such as foxes.
And it's true!

(More pictures of the water meadows to be posted in the next day or so....)

Interesting story; I didn't know that. I really like your galleries because, with
all the quotations and links, they are so informative and entertaining.
You must spend a lot of time at this project; your efforts are appreciated.

If the corporation finds out that you've photographed the cloning project you'll be in trouble!

I thought Llamas had two heads, or is that only on Dr Dolittle?

Excellent find! Pity the poor Llama - with only sheep to talk to!

In the U.S. llamas are often kept with sheep as they kick the tar out of pack dogs and coyotes who love to take down sheep.

Find the black sheep! I guess that if you eat one of its legs for Easter, you could feed quite a lot of people ;-) (Sorry, not PC, but so what ?!?) Superb colors, great find.
