Macadamia nuts are big business in Hawaii, but the orchards themselves present a more pastoral scene. This orchard is rendered slightly less scenic by some dying trees, but that’s offset, to some extent, by the sheep.

Lovely scene! so pastoral …. and I find it so interesting that each sheep is coloured differently!

Good spot! I didn’t even think about that, but the sheep around here seem to be a lot of different shades.

Graham, my guess is that they were probably hired to do a job – mow the grass. It’s quite a pastoral, peaceful sight.

That’s certainly their job. They’re regulars there.

They are on the payroll! Or their owner is – sheek slavery! It doesn’t look like they mind, though. 🙂

It’s not huge here, but it’s not insignificant either. There’s a mac nut plant down the road from here in Kawaihae.
