Yeah I suppose its hard to tell whats happenin in that photo unless u have seen shearing before..I worked in shearin sheds when i was younger ...very hard work!...heres some more pics of shearing ................
I heard Australia has some world class sheep shearers. And from what I gather, the sheep actually dont mind it too much. Its kind of a relief to get all that wool off.
i thought it would be hard to do that job , i think you have to be skilled i dunno... looks to hard for me..i bet it takes along time too.
For sure happy ,in the Mallee when i was workin in the sheds a Gun shearer we worked with cld shear 500 sheep a day, they were only getting Abt $1:80. each, still a damm good wage for a days work.:thumbsup:Quote:

Wow! I REALLY like history. That was fascinating! Thanks! It gives you a whole new perspective of Australian history.(We only learn certain things in America) Very cool.
