Here are some pictures of some nomads from Jaisalmer (in western Rajasthan, about 400 miles away) that stopped by our office to get some water for their flock of sheep. Interesting the sounds they make to keep the sheep under control. They obviously have a great connection to the animals, which is cool to see. The sheep must be very hot, though, since they have what I think are their full coats in the heat of summer (107-113 degrees in the day, often). Interesting stuff.
Sheep spreading out from the water hole. Some in the background, some still drinking.

This sheep was looking at me so intently I couldn't help but take its picture
Slurp, slurp, slurp. What a hot day to have a coat like this.
