Sheep

Lots of sheep actually.

Watched over by the chickens (who never shut up!)

Eventually Sarah took a “look” and the second lamb was tail first (should be head first) so a bit of help was required.

  1. Oh, Helen - these photos of spring lambing are so wonderful. A beautiful reminder that where there's life, there's hope. My favorite is the two lambs 'kissing' their mother. How lucky you were to witness these wooly miracles arrive ;-0
