Sheep have been seen grazing on the streets of a housing estate during the coronavirus lockdown.

In one heartwarming picture, the two sheep are seen walking down a path together side-by-side.
But they weren’t the only sheep to take advantage of Britain’s empty roads.
A flock of sheep this week gathered outside a McDonald’s drive-thru in Ebbw Vale, south Wales.
But these farm animals didn’t have much luck as the fast food chain has temporarily closed all of its stores.
