Friday Creature

This is something we saw quite often while driving out in the countryside around İzmir. Cows, sheep and goats are frequently grazed right on the roadside, with cars and trucks whizzing by. These sheep were being tended by an older man, but often I saw animals being watched by youngsters.

Have a happy weekend, everyone! And if you have a chance, check out the last Friday Ark for May!

When we were in Crete, there were these older women that would walk their goats around and then tie them up somewhere to let them graze for the day. At the end of the day they'd come and collect their goats and take them home. I like the Mediterranean grazing rules, they seem to work! Hope you're having (or have had) a great trip!
