When we were driving in Scotland and Ireland, I remember sheep just totally blocking the road. I loved it, because it was such a throwback to the past, and something I never experienced in the United States. This was 50 years ago, and I am glad they are still there!!!

Oh, they are still there, in droves. In Scotland particularly; didn’t see as many in Ireland, especially not roaming free.

Excellent take on the challenge Lynne! It’s so good that they have signs like that on the roads. Those sheep looks like they own the place. LOL! I love it! I wish they could put up signs like that here for our Vervet monkeys. Great photos and thanks for sharing. 😀

lovely, and you also need to watch for free roaming highland cattle and deer…a dangerous road indeed 🙂

Hi Seonaid – we didn’t come across any free ranging cattle but crossed a lot of cattle gates. But LOTS of sheep bums, as they were usually walking away from us. 🙂

Good one, Lynne. There are signs like this where cattle can range across the road. They’re so dumb that instead of getting off the road, they run down the middle, bawling and throwing terrified looks over their shoulders at the vehicle crawling along behind. 🙂

We are all lost on our way to somewhere else, even in Scotland.
