There is no reason to suspect otherwise.

Human senses are very dull compared with most other species, and our brains are so busy with standing and moving on two legs  (a triumph of software over bad mechanical design), warfare, the Meaning of Life,  tax avoidance, and imagined insults, that we probably have far less capacity for aesthetic appreciation than a sheep.

What is this life if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.
No time to stand beneath the boughs
And stare as long as sheep or cows........

Just like You were trying to understand ' Energy ' on a deeper level...

May i ask, what do consider to be
" Beauty " ?

You surely must have some deep thoughts on it.
If you don't mind Sharing, I'd like to hear your Views/Opinions.

Good question. From a purely subjective point of view I guess I see 'beauty' as a personal and emotional response influenced by individual experiences, preferences, and cultural backgrounds. I know that what I may deem beauty will be seen as ugly by someone else.

I know culturally, around the world there are things that are considered beautiful that would not be considered so elsewhere.

I know there are art pieces that I see as beautiful and others not.

What about you ?

 I think you're spot on with that  opinion on beauty, and I think that may influence your sheep question also. What they consider beauty may simply be a comfortable safe place to graze. Not necessarily the knowledge of the scene looking beautiful to the eye but looking and making them feel safe satisfied and at ease...

Ditto!

There have been no complaints, but the usual adjective is "handsome", "hunky", or "hot" rather than beautiful.
