Which reminds me of when Tamara and I decided to go back in the evening to Stonehenge that we had visited that day. I pulled the car over at an angle onto a grass verge to get off the narrow road, and we were met with hundreds of bright, ghost-like eyes. It was a flock of sheep looking at us in the dark, with their light-gathering eyes staring back at us 🙂
I went to “Sweden’s Stonehenge”; Ale’s Stenar in 2011 … we were all alone there except for the cows … white cows. It was weird — they didn’t look at us even … just walked around there, minding their own business.

“Thanks for the memory,” David, as Bob Hope would say years ago.
I think this breed’s eyes look so wild not only because of their shape but because of their startling shade. Strange and lovely.
