Shady characters

I did a double-take when I caught a glimpse of these sheep out of the corner of my eye as I motored past the drive to a local farm today. Realising I hadn't clocked a human form amongst them I thought they must have escaped and so I stopped and reversed back to check. It turns out, as you can see, that there was a cattle sheep grid keeping the flock in the grounds of the farm. I guess they were just congregating in the shade and who can blame them? It's been another hot one after yesterday's cooler reprieve.
