Shearing 3
While most folks probably had a lazy Sunday it was all go at Crowther's farm above Diggle. The 4 shearers worked non stop, about 3 or 4 minutes to shear a ewe, backed up with people who moved the sheep, folded and bagged the wool, and dipped the sheep afterwards.
Shearing started on Friday and around 700 sheep get sheared each day.
Was great to watch and thanks to the Crowther's for allowing me to take some photos.
