Can EWE see the flock of sheep in this picture?

Hint: there's more than 550 of them!

Being a farmer is a tough gig.

There’s thousands of kilometres to watch over, the elements to contend with, animals to wrangle, and not mention harvests to complete.

We think all that is hard enough without losing your sheep, too!

Canadian farmer Liezel Kennedy posted this hilarious shot to her Twitter last week to highlight how hard it is to keep track of your woolly sheep in a snow field.

Can you spot them?

According to Liezel, there’s more than 550 ewes in the picture – albeit in disguise.

“Could hardly find my sheep this morning,” Liezel tweeted last week, “There are about 550 ewes in that photo!”

Still can’t see them?

Here, let us help:

There they are!

The sheep, which hide amongst the dry scrub, are often hard to spot according to Liezel – but not only in the winter.

Tweeting, the farmer explained that the sheep are often hard to spot in Spring and Summer, too.

Jeez, it sounds like Liezel’s got her work cut out for her.
