Sacrificial Ram

More and more shepherds are coming to the Saturday market with their rams in anticipation of the sacrifices made at the end of the month for Eid al-Adha. The hot pepper & onion sellers are also out en masse but while colorful they did not capture my attention like this group of young shepherds keeping their flock out of the way of an approaching micro-bus.
Also note that the electrical poles now have lines! The people on this side of the river have been promised electricity in time for this month's celebration!
