The red sheep of Scotland

Andrew Jack, a farmer of Scotland, painted his flock of sheep bright red in an effort to "brighten things up". This 54-strong flock of red sheep, grazing on a hillside, have been entertaining motorists driving past the business park in West Lothian, Scotland. The sheep were painted using animal friendly dye and the color remains for about a month until sheared. This is quite a sight!

What the heck is up with those hills the sheep standing on? It looks like buried pyramids.

It looked like the countryside was bleeding. They should have painted them purple!

That's a pretty good sense of humor. Everyone needs to lighten up once in a while.

I love it when I see people successfully not taking life so damned seriously! We could all take a small lesson from this guy, lighten up, and enjoy life just a bit!

You know if he'd used green instead of red it would've been trippy for drivers seeing what appeared to be moving bushes. XD
