Almost didn't enter this one: wasn't sure the sheep faces could carry it off, but then I thought of the title...
Nice comments, good score (for me) and my goodness the postnut gallery which makes me feel that it was worth it after all.
These are 3 of a bunch of angoras recently acquired by June who lives a long way down the road, and if I were her I would spend all my time just looking at them.

I love it Timmy. The processing is fabulous -- you really brought out all those curls beautifully, and I love the nice warm tones of the wood and the hay. And the expression on the face of the one in front is priceless. It looks like it is talking to us.
Lovely finish for what, in the end, is just a bunch of dumb-azz sheeps :-) I gave you a 9... For me, the texture of the coats was compelling.
I believe I might have cropped this vertically to the upper right, so no legs showing and left edge was the edge of the wood upright, but that's a different picture.
Either way it's a great shot for me, I don't give out many 9's or 10's.
Congratulations! I feel vindicated. Although for my 6 photographs marked with 10 in this amazing challenge I would have hoped yours scored higher. Three of my marked 10 photos are placed in the top 10 - and I am so new to this site I feel like I shall just observe for a while and not be so cheeky as to vote!
The angorables surely have a hypnotic quality and, again, the composition is masterly.
OMG. Just love this so much. I like how you have them filling the frame. Perfect focus. I would have given this much high marks but forgot to vote on FS.
Nice capture. I can almost hear "Whatcha looking at?" :)
A bit too tight for my liking - would've preferred some space all around the sheep.
I thought Angoras are rabbits and not sheep, but the wool is wonderful nonetheless :)
