Good morning from a cool and misty Hastings day.
Last Friday my Social Snappers group wandered around the centre and into the CBD on the hunt for some interesting photos. There were a lot of oddball photos to find. First up are these sheep signs. When I was growing up it was a common sight when driving off the main highways to find the road blocked by flocks of sheep. But we didn’t have these signs. Now we have the signs, but a lot fewer sheep. But you can still come across sheep blocking the road on the more rural roads.
I love all the colours in this.
And finally this lost car on a fence.
You can find more details about this great challenge over at Cee‘s blog.

Thanks for visiting.
Raewyn, I love the colors and beauty of the second shot, but I like all of them. I’ve seen signs for goats while in France and, of course, cattle signs out west.

New Zealand was the land of sheep, not so much now.

I am used to cattle crossing signs, but the sheep signs are cuter. The whirligig is really colorful. Nice.

When I first saw the toy car I though it was a pair of goggles peering a wall 😃

Actually that is what I thought too, until I got closer

Well, the signs are almost as good as sheep … and probably don’t tie up traffic. Great, fun photos 🙂

Thanks Marilyn.It was a common sight around New Zealand, but it is now becoming rarer as New Zealand moved to dairying.
