Beware of sheep wearing hoods.
The sheep were shorn of their wool before being
taken into the show ring and clothed in muslin outfits
to keep them from becoming soiled.
While no political intent was discerned,
the outfits may be the latest fashion;
I've been to shows in the past where the sheep
were clad in brightly-colored Spandex that
hugged their forms. Maybe they felt sheepish
about the body-revealing outfits
and demanded a change, but still sheepishly
following the latest trend.
Sharing the building with the sheep were various
breeds of goats. Almost as wary as their sheep cousins,
it was difficult to get one to be friendly - except for this guy,
who seemed perfectly willing to follow me home.
I liked his curious nature, wrinkled forehead,
and wiry coat.
