Here are some more sheep pics that I took up at Alan's farm .... these are Alan's "boys" or "Tips" as they call them.

  
And the dog is Sam she is one of his sheepdogs .. she was standing the sheep off for me while I took pictures ..
in the picture a Herdwick had just stamped at her and she was eyeing it up to hold it there ... Hugs, jayne
  
They are all separated ready for breeding. The white one with the black face is a Northumberland/ Scotch Black Face.
The grey coloured one is a Herdwick ..... the man in the pics is Alan!
