MANILA, Philippines – Every 26th of January, Australians mark the anniversary of the 1788 establishment of the first European settlement at Port Jackson, now part of Sydney. And while most celebrate the day through community festivals, concerts and citizenship ceremonies, one farmer brought the celebration to a whole new unprecedented level.

To commemorate the Australia Day, Hannah Marriott, a sheep farmer who owns a farmhouse in Kalkallo, Victoria, arranged her flock of sheep into the design of the country’s famous flag and the word, "OZ" - a slang term sometimes used for the country Australia.

By using a tractor to vigilantly place sheep-feed, she managed to successfully keep the 1030 sheep on their assigned places.

Watch how she made it work below (video from YouTube user Londa Messick)
