Picture of the Day for November 22, 2021

There are no horns on these critters for the deer hunters to find but there are some tails. The Katahdin breed of sheep was developed in the United States for a meat sheep that did not require shearing. In cold winter they grow a thick coat which is then shed in the warm seasons. Their name comes from Mt. Katahdin, the highest peak in Maine, the state where the breed was developed.
