Sheep ‘hired’ at cemetery uncover historic graves

These sheep are a better mowing crew than machines! On a serious side, I'm always pleased to see old headstones revealed and those buried remembered.
 
I’m surprised they are using sheep instead of goats. My sheep preferred the shorter grass and the goats would eat anything. I have a perfectly manicured yard when I had the goats. When the goats passed and only the sheep remained only the grass was eaten.

Sheep are ubiquitous in Ireland, goats not so much. There are more sheep in Ireland than people. I don't remember ever seeing domestic goats in Ireland.
