I've been hiding in the wool house during the heat of the day(s). As I got ready to head in for dinner, I glanced over the front field and saw something I thought I'd never see.
I tried to silently run get my camera and sneak back and snapped this picture through the fence just in case Hank woke up or the sheep decided to make a run for the barn...
When I'm faced with a once in a lifetime photo opp, I try to always switch my camera to program mode so someone smarter than me is setting my exposure... I knew it was just a matter of seconds before someone blew my cover.
I wish I'd set the aperture myself though so both Hank and Esther were in focus. I got so caught up in the moment and it never crossed my mind to think for myself ;-).
How sweet Hank looked sleeping up on the hill overlooking his sheep. And right next to the one sheep who would need the most protection. The one sheep I thought would never recognize Hank as an ally and let him lie down with her.
Awwwww.

You really captured that Kodak moment. Just maybe, Esther is watching over Hank for a change. what a difference a year makes! ;-)
Awwww, how sweet is that? Willa is still too much of a wild child to get that close.
Oh my goodness, Hank and Esther, lord knows they both could use a few moments today for a rest >> along with their mommy...
