Sheep

A couple dozen sheep or more were hanging out at Hemenway Park.  Would you rather walk around in the cactus all day or eat the soft green grass at the park?  Technically, they are Desert Bighorn Sheep.  The herd moves around in the River Mountains – Bootleg canyon, Cascada golf course, Hemenway park, and the lake side neighborhoods.  They are pretty tame and get close to people.  Pull off the highway coming up from the dam and odds are good you will see them at the park this time of year.
