Taken in North Yorkshire on a very cold and windy day! I thought this made a nice (if less interesting) change to the usual photos of more exotic animals. I parked the car in the middle of the road (it was very quiet) to take a quick photo of a waterfall in the distance... When I looked behind me, I was being chased by sheep!

I really like this. It probably should have scored higher because it is composed very well, and the lighting is terrific. I didn't vote in this challenge, but this was one of my favorites.
Cute capture. I can't help but wish you'd captured them as they were rounding the bend and approaching you or if you'd shot horizontal. The most forward one on the left hand side and the two behind being cut off spoils the comp for me.
Is this normal where you live? Sure would make getting to work difficult. Love it, love it!!! It's a charming photo with lots of appealing looking sheep. They look like they are smiling. Top notch photo all the way!
I love teh photo - all those great faces - great cropping, exposure etc - giving it a 5 though as these are domesticated. If this were not only a wildlife challenge, would have given it at least an 8
Some people might not think a herd of sheep is wildlife but if this is in New Zealand or ICeland I KNOW they are let out to roam on mountains for months on end...so, for me it's wildlife, good luck to you..
