We had a total of 11 lambs this year, 3 ram lambs and 8 ewe lambs. The ewes this year were mostly first time mums but by and large took to the experience very well. Three births needed some assistance for successful delivery. The ewes are all proving to be good, attentive mothers. The lambs, along with their mothers, are enjoying being on grass out in the sun and each afternnon we enjoy watching them frolic together in the way lambs do.
The two photos below were taken at the same time.
A lovely post for today. All in the April evening, I thought on the Lamb of God
ReplyDeleteDeliberately quiet day for us and as you suggest time for reflection.
DeleteIt must be so rewarding to see the lambs thriving and the ewes adjusting so well to motherhood. There’s something special about watching young animals frolic in the sun—it really brings a sense of peace. I hope you get many more joyful moments with them! www.melodyjacob.com
ReplyDeleteWatching lambs jumping and running and chasing is never wasted time!

ReplyDeleteI live in a big city...Montreal, Canada. Your photos are absolutely beautiful and calming, much needed in the hustle and bustle of daily life. Thankfully I am 68 and retired, but housework and everything else still needs to be done. Thank you so much for sharing this.
