Clipping the sheep

When we went to visit Bensi in Hólmavað, we met him in the sheepstable, where he was taking off the wool. We were not of much use, as we were as usual too late, so we just used the time to watch a bit and take pics. Have a look at them in "People" - "Clipping the sheep"
By the way: even if Bensi wouldn't take the wool off, the sheep would loose it on their own. Icelandic sheep still grow winter and summer fur, not like most of the other breeds, which keep their wool and would just grow more and more, if you don't take it off. There are a few pics of Bensi's old ram, who was not clipped and is loosing his wool on his own at the moment.
