M12, T11: Its early morning and there's a strange creature in Sunflower Valley. First of all it visits the Homestead and then Scarecrow Cottage scaring Sumsy and Travis. It's something big and hairy, but gets frightened away by Scrambler carrying Baz. He is Farmer Pickles cousin and has come to help with the sheep shearing, at the new shearing station that Bob's building. Back at Scarecrow cottage, the 'thing' is back again, hiding in the bushes. Baz warns that the last time he heard rustling in the bushes; it turned out to be a crocodile! The sheep shearing pen is well under way, Baz is ready to prove he's the fastest shearer in the west, and Scrufty and Travis are going to round up the sheep. Sumsy and Spud soon cause panic across the valley by spreading rumours of "The beast of Sunflower Valley". Farmer Pickles, Baz and Sumsy take Scrufty to track to beast down. Srufty races into its hiding place only to be chased out by... an extremely woolly sheep!
