sheep flock
Grazing lamb group
A sheep flock is a group of sheep kept together, typically under the care of a shepherd or farmer.
The phrase is somewhat redundant since flock already implies sheep more than any other animal, but it appears when distinguishing from other livestock: The sheep flock grazed on the hillside while the cattle occupied the lower pasture.
