Summer transhumance (temporary nomadism moving the livestock to the summer pastures, on the highest parts of the mountains after the winter snows have melted).
This video shows the moment where the sheep flocks from Estac and Enviny mix with the flock from Llessui (all of them villages from the High Pyrenees, Catalonia). A shepherd gives the sheep to the shepherd who will take care of them all summer with the help of his shepherd dog. In autumn, this shepherd will bring the sheep flock down to the valley again, where the sheep will be distributed to their original farm.
