Soay Sheep at Glengoulandie


This little Soay lamb was out sunning itself today. Soay sheep come in different colours. This lamb is "light wild", the ram behind is "dark wild", both having a white belly. If they had the same colour all over they would be termed "light or dark self".
Soays are the most primitive breed of sheep in Britain.
