In the picturesque fields of England, the majestic tups reign supreme. From Beltex to Texel rams, these domestic sheep stand tall and proud, showcasing their unique characteristics. In a serene field in Cumbria, three Beltex and Texel rams command attention as they graze peacefully. Moving on to another scene in Cumbria, a Texel yearling ram calls out with determination. His close-up reveals the intricate details of his head, capturing the essence of this magnificent breed. Meanwhile, Blue-faced Leicester rams enjoy a feast on hay in a rack nearby during September's golden days. As autumn arrives in Bentham, North Yorkshire, an impressive Dalesbred ram captivates with its commanding presence. Its close-up showcases its regal head adorned with thick wool that protects against the upcoming winter chill. Not far away in Tosside also within North Yorkshire's embrace stands a Boreray ram displaying its distinctive features through an intense close-up shot. Venturing back to England's countryside pastures of Cumbria is where we find a Swaledale ram grazing contently amidst lush greenery. Another Blue-faced Leicester ram stands proudly alongside ear tags that signify ownership and care for this magnificent creature during September's harvest season. Perched upon Brennand Farm's hill pasture near Dunsop Bridge lies yet another Swaledale ram surveying its domain with authority during November's crisp air. Winter has arrived when snow blankets Cumbria’s landscape; however, Herdwick rams remain resilient as they stand strong amidst their snowy kingdom come January. At the annual tup sale held at Broughton in Furness within Lake District National Park farmers gather around eagerly observing Herdwick rams paraded around the sale ring - each one representing years of careful breeding and dedication to preserving this iconic breed’s heritage. The final glimpse takes us up-close to one such Herdwick ram at the annual tup sale.
