Sheep

Although a little overcast in the morning the sun came out in the afternoon and it was another good day. Crofters were rounding up sheep today, their shouting and the sheep’s bleating was to be heard all afternoon as they were ferried across from the Island of Pabbay to be shorn and taken to the moors during the next days. I still remember the small boat that used to sail across many times. Nowadays the crofters use a bigger vessel, there are fewer able crofters but I suppose the same number of sheep on Pabbay.
