Wool Gathering (PiP) HFF!

Wool Gathering (PiP)  HFF!
My mother always used to say I was a dreamer and often said I was 'woolgathering' instead of concentrating which basically means daydreaming. The sheep's wool has been caught in the fence and gathered along the length of it. I have added a bit of a loose link here with the Monkees and 'Daydream Believer'

There is a little wagtail on the fence - I have also added 'Bird on A Wire' by KD Lang

One of my school reports says "Maurice could do better if he stopped day dreaming". Lol. Coincidently we were at East Bergholt today and commented on the wool caught on the fence but not in such large quantity has in your shot.

Thank you very much Maurice. I would have done better sticking to my own school work instead of helping others! I was once told not to do my brother's homework after causing much hilarity in the staff room. My brother insisted he had to write an essay on Helga, which was showing at the cinemas and included scenes of the birth of a baby. I was clueless but had a good imagination so I wrote it for him. It turned out it was for a music lesson and should have been about Elgar the composer! I should have stuck to to dreaming! Have a good weekend

Ecobird club has replied to Tanja - Loughcrew club
Hi Tanja and many thanks. Really appreciated. I was mad on the Monkees , especially Davy Jones and must have nearly worn out their first LP! Memories! You could be right - and it seems to be working! It might just be harder to get it off the fence thatn off the sheep though! Lol!! Have a lovely weekend

Thank you very much Sasi. Really appreciated. I was Monkees mad as a young girl (and had a wee bit of crush on Davy Jones) I was glued to the television when their shows were on. Their first LP was the first one I bought. Have a wonderful weekend

Ecobird club has replied to tiabunna club
Thank you very much George. Really appreciated. My mother was quite exasperated at my daydreaming and I couldn't understand why. Then my youngest was just like me and worried me silly as she would walk home with her nose in a book or in her own little world. I was scared she would get knocked down. A belated HFF and have a great (dreamy!) Bank Holiday weekend

That's really amazing. I've never seen such a thing!

Clever links, Carol. I've always loved this one from the Monkees. I remember buying this 45 with my allowance when I was a kid. The k.d. lang song I've never heard. Excellent. I always enjoy hearing her.

A very belated HFF and I hope you have a nice week. :)

Ecobird club has replied to Karen's Place club
Thank you very much Karen. Really appreciated. I agree - I have never seen so much wool gathered in a fence. I am really pleased you enjoyed the music. It takes me back thinking of Saturday afternoons spent in record shops, listening to music in soundproofed booths and then coming out clutching a new record, then playing it to death on my Dansette record player. Memories.

Thank you very much dear Christiane. Really appreciated. It was quite an amazing sight as the wool collected on the entire length of the fence and I had not seen anything like it before, I am pleased you enjoyed the comments too - if the truth be told I am still a bit of a dreamer! Lol! Enjoy the rest of you week

Those are splendid musical choices, for a really unique picture. I had no idea wool ever gathered in drifts in this manner. Amazing.
6 years ago.
Ecobird club has replied to Smiley Derleth club
Thank you very much Smiley. My apologies for the late response. I am pleased you enjoyed the musical links. The sheeps wool on the full length of the fence was quite an amazing sight. I wondered if they rubbed against the fence and the fleece became caught but dismissed the idea when I had images of an endless row of sheep combing their locks on the wire fence! Think I will still to counting sheep and not tangles!!

A wonderful image. Made me wool gather just looking at it. Dreaming of gleaning that wool and dyeing it and all the things that could be done with it.
