Sheep Behind Bars - Temple Newsam, Leeds

Temple Newsam Sheep

I took this photograph of a sheep on the Home Farm, Temple Newsam Estate, Leeds a few weeks back.

I have thought about posting this photo for a while and then discounted it but I do quite like this picture of a sheep behind bars.

There are quite a few farm animals on the Home Farm and all the ones I have encountered are quite friendly. This I think is because the Temple Newsam Estate is quite a tourist attraction and small children have few hangups about approaching sheep to say hello!

Visitors to the Home Farm are given a small tub of feed pellets and the animals have long since figured out that a visitor equals a light snack.

  3. Will I seem very terribly ignorant if I ask you what exactly a "home farm" is?
