Missing Willow Farm

You don’t see this very often – a lone sheep.  They have a strong instinct to stay together in a group.  This is what protects them from predators who go after the outliers in a flock.   If we need to move one sheep into our little pasture for whatever reason (illness, separating the males from the females, etc), we always bring a buddy along so it doesn’t get agitated… and a guardian dog.   Everyone stays happy if they have a friend to hang out with.
