NT1662 : Is it time for lunch?

taken 7 years ago, 4 km S of Balerno, Edinburgh, Scotland

Is it time for lunch?
Is it time for lunch?
These sheep must have spotted the shepherd on his quad bike (see NT1662 : Sheep near Wester Bavelaw), and presumably they associate quad bikes with being fed something more interesting than grass, so they were heading very purposefully towards where he was last in view. When they spotted me, they all turned and fled. I remain unsure whether I should be offended, or relieved that they don't regard me as potential lunch.
