I came home from a windy cold ride today to find this in my mailbox. This puts a whole new spin on "performance art" and had me laughing out loud. Check it out:

That was AMAZING!
Thanks!

Yeah! Cool movie, and I actually believe most of that was real, although maybe the animated walking sheep figure was a put together out of stills. UK-E's new digs in Wales has a view of a hillside with big flocks of sheep. First morning there we watched them being herded into lines for feeding. It looked like "synchronized flocking", a new olympic sport.
Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

I wonder how long it took them to coordinate all that.

Gee..impressive.
A few years ago, during 800 km. bike tour ride that he and I did in southeastern Ontario, we stopped in a city where there sheepdog competitions.
The dogs were put through tests of herding 2-3 sheep into various corners, corrals. They are amazing dogs if trained well.
