Drone herding sheep on Irish farm

Rico's friend Kelley forwards this FoxNews article on new farming technology:

Irish farmer Declan Brennan has found the most unlikely kind of sheepdog: a drone. Brennan operated a Yuneec Q500 drone to herd his flock of sheep at Herondale, his Carlow, Ireland farm. In a YouTube video (above) posted by Brennan’s brother Paul, who runs Skyfly Photography, which provides drone-shot aerial videos, viewers can get a bird’s-eye view of the flock being ushered around the lush farmland by the drone.
“Although Declan doesn’t do this every day, he has done it before quite easily, depending on the weather, and it is a very feasible idea,” Paul told CNET. “Ask any sheep farmer about trying to drive sheep from one field to another and he will tell you it’s a difficult job. So, in this case, Declan did a great job.”
Does this mean Lassie is out and Shep the drone, the name the brothers gave the flying robot, is in? Only time will tell.

Rico says it beats trying to get the little bastards to move any other way...
