The Sheep Circle

Photographer Russell Bird captured this mysterious structure known as the "sheep circle":

There were strange goings on at the farm today when a flock of sheep made their own version of a crop circle.

About 100 of the woolly creatures formed an orderly ring - baffling the farmer and passers-by.

But after hearing the roar of the boss's tractor the animals scattered like a group of naughty schoolboys.

This blog is an amazing one. It is strange to go to farm while flocks of sheep are making circle. This woolly sheep's blocked the way when they come to roads. They got scattered when farmer enter into the farm with there tractor. If anyone want to share their views please let me know.

I got the rubber duck too... They must have had a lot left unsold.

But seriously... A rubber duck!

Sure, it's a "celebrity" rubber duck. From a 20 year old movie.

I didn't expect a big prize... I did expecta little more than a rubber duck which can also be found at my local 99 cent store.

SenorMysterioso, I was just going to post that earlier this morning.

Indeed, I was going to comment on how long before someone starts crying about what they received. Sounds like jealousy envy to me, perhaps they shouldn't have the pictures of the big winners.

Congrats. Sadly I have not received the three that I ordered yet. I love the sale and I plan to keep doing it everytime it comes around. I've taken part in all but the first one. This is more fun than gambling.
