He might be the black sheep of the family but he knows enough to stop and smell the flowers. This is my latest attempt to create artwork with a quilted effect...not a real quilt!
It's a year since the first known use of the Defaidodon (a combination of the Welsh word for sheep and Mastodon) hashtag in the Fediverse, and it turned out to be surprisingly popular. So show us your sheep.
To all the thought sharers, status updaters, blog post notifiers, silent readers, toot boosters, and everyone else whether you're here for #Defaidodon or #Mosstodon or #StandingStoneSunday or your daily #CraenEccles , thank you for making this space so unique, so warm, and so welcoming.
In whatever way you pass this festive period, I hope it's a time of peace and reflection, and wish you the very best for a happy new year.
Starting the week with sheep for my Daily #Wales. Inspired to do so because this Tuesday sees the opening of our makers’ pop-up in #Harlech, where I will be spinning in public during the next four weeks.
And talking about sheep. A lot. These, BTW, are Black Welsh Mountains.
Ok, I'm putting this out there now so that people have time to prepare. Obviously there's a lot of people posting about their anniversary of joining Mastodon / the Fediverse at the moment, but there's a particularly special anniversary happening tomorrow.
It'll be one year tomorrow since the #Defaidodon hashtag was unleashed on the world (Diolch @jaz), and I think this needs to be marked with many pictures of sheep. You know what to do.
Crutched a handful of #ewes and #lambs to keep them dag & stain free in this warm humid weather & to prevent #flystrike. All done by smoko.
The #sheep walked out of the yards, heading for a drink then a rest in the shade. #SheepOfMastodon#Defaidodon
Daily #Wales in winter with added sheep (so a #Defaidodon or #SheepOfMastodon - it’s been a while, which is slacking for a someone who spins wool). Baaaaa….
Another windy day on the farm. I’m tired of the wind now, and temporarily fixing the damage it causes. I’m not even sure where the #sheep are hiding. Hoping for a nice calm Christmas and New Year. #weather#Defaidodon#SheepOfMastodon
