Cartão Postal Two Suffolk Sheep Afternoon Sunlight

A pair of young Suffolk sheep, two black-faced sheep in a pasture or barnyard, with afternoon sunlight creating a pastoral scene. Suffolks originated in England and are the most popular sheep breed in the United States, comprising about 60% of the domestic sheep population. This postcard is perfect for anyone who keeps or admires sheep and lambs, especially Suffolks, including commercial farmers, hobby farmers and shepherds, anyone who shows or breeds sheep. Sheep and lambs are generally gentle in nature. The Suffolk breed is quite hardy either purebred or crossbred. As animal spirit guides or totems, sheep represent kindness and compassion, honesty and trust, artistic talents, community, emotional depth and domestic harmony. The Sheep is the eighth sign of the Chinese zodiac and the year of the Sheep (or Goat) falls every twelve years including 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003, 2015 and 2027. Photo: Jacquie Wingate.
