Where Are They Now - Hank And Daniel Not-Boone

Just to be clear, Daniel is completely down with back scratches (and eye rubs, hugs and kisses :-).  In fact, he's probably my chummiest sheep.  So much so that he will push other sheep away from me, especially Burrnie.  "She is talking to ME right now, Burrnie/Hershey/Maisie/Annabelly..."

When Daniel first got here, he was terribly afraid of people.  For the first couple of weeks I actually thought he might never settle in and that was such a surprise because his brother, Marcel, was the most laid back love bug ever.  Marcel loved everybody, especially me and super especially Hank.  

Side note - I'm so glad I have a blog.  I'd forgotten the story of Marcel banging on the gate and Hank stopping him.  I re-read it when I was picking a post to link for "super especially Hank".  It's nice to have good memories :-).

Back to the story at hand, what Daniel's never gotten over is his fear of Hank.  Hank has never done anything bad to Daniel. Or Chocula, who is also very scared of Hank.  Nothing bad happened to them before they came here.  Hershey?  Hank can't get away from him.  I have no answers.

I did notice the other day though when I was out there with everyone that Daniel was actually grazing calmly no more than 20 feet away from Hank.  That's a Big Deal.  I quietly snapped a few pictures.

While I doubt they Daniel has called a truce, it sure looks like Hank is happy and hopeful.  He loves his sheeps, even the silly ones :-).
