Baa-sil and partner came to say hello and ask wheres the food?
A very attractive church in a well composed image, HFF!

:-))) Suitably guilt tripped. At least they didn't bring a collection plate with them!!

HFF and have a great weekend

Attractive addition to the collection,

Vous êtes bien accueillis *****************HFF Carol et bon we mon amie!

Thank you very much dear Angelique. It was a nice warm woolly welcome - although I have a feeling they might have been looking for snacks!!

HFF and have a lovely weekend

Das gefällt mir,dass dir beiden Schafe auch noch in deiner schönen Aufnahme so posiert haben liebe Carol,toll ist dieser Blick rüber auf dieses Bauwerk :))

Wünsche noch einen schönen Nachmittag,liebe Grüße Güni :))

Thank you very much Guni. They posed so nicely but I think their enthusiasm might have been because they were looking for snacks!!

Have a great weekend

Das kommt auch so rüber liebe Carol,hahahaha :))

Wünsche noch ein schönes Wochenende,liebe Grüße Güni :))

They came to pose for the photo..
Pleasant moment well capture, Carol
HFF too

Thank you very much Judite. I like to think they came running down to have their photo taken, although maybe they were just looking for food! It was a nice welcome anyway

HFF and have a good weekend

Friendly sheep. Lovely church.
HFF Carol. Have a great weekend.

Thank you very much Pete

HFF and have a good weekend

Je pense qu'il y a un intérêt particulier à venir voir les promeneurs, peut-être quelques chose à manger ? Le décor est magnifique et paisible, très jolie prise de vue Carol !

Thank you very much Dominique. It was lovely seeing them running down the hill towards us and bleating gently, but I am sure you are right and that food might well have been the incentive. Alas we had nothing. They were very sweet thought.

Best wishes Carol

A beautiful compo although the fence does look somewhat sheep ;-)
HFF and have a wonderful weekend, Carol.

:-)) Thank you Edna. The fence is needed here as the field goes right down to the road.

HFF and have a great weekend. Go easy on the beer!!!!!

Best wishes Carol

An inquisitive looking pair Carol! The church looks more interesting with that type of tower. HFF and best wishes for a happy weekend.

Very friendly too David!! The tower is quite low and typically Norman. The church is really quite beautiful. Many thanks. HFF and have a good weekend

:o))) Ce doit être drôle de les voir à la messe! J'adore les moutons. HFF sur Explorer, Carol.
(la musique est douce, c'est agréable, elle a une belle voix "jazzy")

Thank you very much Franck :-)) It has been suggested that the warm welcome we had may have been because they were looking for treats. At least they didn't bring a collection plate!!

I am really pleased you liked the music Yes she does have a lovely voice. She is one of my husband's favourite jazz singers.

Have a lovely weekend

:o)) J'aime ton humour !

Part of the parish flock no doubt Carol. Always good to see sheep on our pages Carol. Well done.

HFF, enjoy the weekend. Herb

Yes no doubt Herb :-)) The first time I have ever been welcomed to church by sheep though!!

HFF and have a good weekend

Nette Schafe, HFF und ein schönes Wochenende!

Thank you very much Jo. Really appreciated. HFF and best wishes Carol

A super image Carol I love sheep.
HFF all the best TOZ

Thank you very much TOZ. Really appreciated
HFF and have a good weekend. Best wishes Carol

A very nice picture of this interesting church!
Why its nickname is 'The Cathedral of the Moor' ?
I looked for internet, but i only found this information.
Wikipedia says
"The church was erected on the site of an earlier church. Episcopal records in Wells mention a church in North Curry as early as 1199."
Anyway you made a really wonderful composition with the sheep!
HFF and have a great weekend Carol!

Best wishes
Füsun

Thank you very much for the lovely comments Fusun.

I gather that it is known as the Cathedral of the Moors because of it's impressive size, and of course it stands proud above the Levels or Moors. It is a lot bigger than it actually looks in this picture and is really quite beautiful.

Roger also told me the sheep can be seen on the image from Google Earth!!

Those sheep are beautiful, HFF Carol

Thank you very much Isabel. They are very friendly as well!

HFF and best wishes Carol

HFF The sheep look like real characters. A very attractive church

Thank you very much Colin. They do seem to be and are certainly very friendly. I imagine they are pets. Roger did tell me they appeared in the Google Earth map so they seem like they belong there.

Yes the church is really beautiful and actually bigger than it seems here.

Have a good weekend. Best wishes Carol

A delightful scene , so well taken , Carol!
The sheep seem to be looking at you, but they must have realized your intentions were good! ;-)
The ancient church on the top of the hill looks so beautiful and everything in the ohoto is in harmony!
HFF and a nice weekend

Thank you very much for your lovely generous comments Adele. I like to think they were pleased to see us and wanted their photos taken. They may just have been looking for treats though.
The church is beautiful. We wanted a closer look as we took some photos from a little distance away on the other side of the church. Surrounded by trees in their autumn colours it looked so nice. Unfortunately parking was limited and we had to settle for this view. I was pleased though as we may not have had such a warm welcome at the front of the church.

HFF and have a good weekend

Superbes photo de cette scène et vue sur l’eglise . HFF. Bon week-end.

Thank you very much Nicole. The church is really attractive and we were pleased to see the sheep!

HFF and have a good weekend

Comme ils sont mignons, ils sont venus te saluer ces beaux laineux à tête noire, une race que j'adore, un endroit merveilleux et si paisible c'est une image remarquable, bravo !+++++++
HFF chère Carol et un joli WE ensoleillé.

Thank you very much Jocelyne. They are adorable aren't they? They seemed so happy to see us too.

HFF and have a lovely weekend. Best wishes Carol

Hi Carol
A very nice picture, which I like very much!
Wonderful and interesting composition
Great colours too.
Obviously you were not wearing wellies, nor discussing mint sauce!
Best Wishes, HFF, a nice weekend, and stay safe!!
Peter

Thank you very much Peter. I am pleased you like it.
:-)) No I was not insensitive enough to mention mint sauce -if I had our warm welcome would have been for the chop!!'

HFF and have a good weekend. Best wishes Carol

Zwei charmante Wachposten :-)
HFF und ein schönes Wochenende, Carol!

Thank you very much Wilhelm. They are cute aren't they?

HFF and have a good weekend

Jolie vue de cette chapelle ! L'accueil par les résidents est très chaleureuse !
L'ensemble est ravissant !
Bon week-end Carol .

Thank you very much Misou. Having stopped to get photos of this beautiful old church I was delighted to see the friendly sheep. They really made me smile

Have a lovely weekend

Nice picture... :-)

Thank you very much Jyri.

Best wishes Carol

Are these sheep aware of the beauty of their surroundings? A landscape as green as it is relaxing. Best wishes, Anton.

Thank you very much Anton. I doubt that they take a lot of notice other than to enjoy the lush grass. They are very friendly though so maybe they are more 'people' sheep. I imagine they are kept as pets, or at least made a fuss of by the locals.

Best wishes Carol

super!
Love the title ;-)))

very belated HFF!

Thank you very much Markus. I am blessed that you liked the title!! :-)))

Best wishes Carol
