We took 9 ewes in total up to a new field in North Walden... we know the owner of the house and field and he wanted some sheep to graze it down and make use of all the lovely herbage.... so some spained mums and a couple of sheerings went up in 3 lots over the last 10 days
We are going out to dinner tonight and Nigel was worrying about them not being checked today..... so after feeding my gang I jumped in the car to pop over and put his mind at rest.....
I pulled up... got out of the car and started counting as I walked up the garden and into the field..... hang on a minute I thought..... 8 were on there way down.. at some pace, but the last hung back.... there were another little set of legs in behind those of the ewe.......
Surprise surprise...... our latest arrival... a bit late on the scene but none the less up and running and suckling like mad...... I've called him "sunshine" and what a bonny lamb he is!!...... pics to follow later!
