Not quite, but these sheep have been recently shorn so they look quite clean.
I took this through the car windscreen on Sunday when we stopped to let them cross the road.

The sky colour is a bit weird, but at least it is blue. Later on in the day it became a very murky colour. We have since been told that was a result of smoke from the terrible bush fires raging across the Tasman Sea, near Sydney, Australia. Thoughts are with the 1000's affected over there, and the brave and untiring firefighters.

I guess they wouldn't be found up that snow white mountain either!

Good catch

Well captured with the snow covered mountains as backdrop Lyn. I have just scene on TV about an hour ago the scenes of the raging fire. Hope it won't get any closer to Sydney.

Very interesting shot - I assumed the sheep were in fenced in pastures but they roam free. Stunning backdrop.

I do hope they know the way home ! Poor sweeties shivering in their summer furs...
I heard [no TV at my apartment = it is a rule of my own NO TV] about the fire reaching Sydney and was thinking the same as you said, dear LE. Let's hope as Raj says that it does not get any closer and is over soonest possible.

I think it turned out very good under the shooting conditions, it's really not detectable. That is such a terrible situation over there,I heard some kids started some of them. My thoughts go out to those suffering through that terrible mess. Tigs♥ =^..^=
