I hope the killer sheep aren't just behing waiting for you.

The killer sheep in the long grass still make the English countryside a dangerous place for the unwary walker but I am helped by by equipment carriers doubling up as 'beaters' to flush them out: http://www.geebeephoto.com/temp/Olympus/Everdon_09.htm A new behaviour pattern has made things even more dangerous. At this time of year they draw you in with cuddly lambs. Many a walker has been lured in with the sentiment 'Aah new born lambs' only to change to 'Arrgh, killer sheep' as the killer sheep springs (no pun intended) the trap. http://www.geebeephoto.com/temp/Olympus/Everdon_09a.htm Thanks for looking and for bringing Spring to the UK early by way of your Atlanta flora and expertise at capturing it in your shots. --Graham
