Traditional March of Highlanders with Flocks of Sheep in Poland

An owner holds his sheep that he found among a herd during "rozchod", which in local language means giving back sheep to owners, during autumn Redyk in Gron village, Tatra Mountains region of southern Poland October 7, 2015. Redyk is a traditional, kilometres-long march of highlanders with flocks of sheep, which takes place twice a year: in the spring at the start of the grazing season, and in the autumn at season's end. Shepherds are paid by owners in sheep milk for looking after the flocks while they graze over the summer. The autumn redyk ends in festivities, as highlanders celebrate returning with the flocks from the grazing fields in the mountains. (Photo by Kacper Pempel/Reuters)
