The correct answer is B the shepherds.
The Gospel of Luke describes angels announcing the birth of Jesus to shepherds in the field, with a sign that they would find the baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger. The angels also declared the good news of the Savior's birth. This was a significant event, as it was not the religious leaders or rulers who were the first to hear the news of the birth of Christ, but the lowly shepherds.
Let's look at why the other options are incorrect:
A an angel of the Lord:
While angels did announce the birth of Jesus to the shepherds, the angel was not the specific recipient of the announcement, but rather the messenger.
C Herod the Great:
Herod was a king who ruled Judea and was not the recipient of the announcement of Jesus' birth.
D the wise men:
The wise men followed a star to find the infant Jesus, but they were not the first to hear the announcement of his birth from angels.

Correct Answer
B) the shepherds

Explanation
According to the Bible, specifically in the Gospel of Luke (Luke 2:8-14), the birth of Jesus was announced to the shepherds with a sign, and an angel of the Lord appeared to them, saying, "Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord."

note the birth was announced to the shepherds with a sign while the magi followed a star to his place
it was never announced to the magi as soon as he was born
