Ewe number five is something of a mumma bear. That's a distinct, "Don't come near my baby again, two-legs!" look right there.

I just can't shake this. Coming and going from the lambing shed, in the middle of nowhere, during hours of darkness, has me on guard. I check outside the shed as I come out, and when I go in I shout as if there is someone else there, just in case. And I have a big stick.
For all those women who text their mates to let them know they got home safe,who wear flat shoes at night so they can run if they need,who have keys in their hands ready to use, it’s not your fault. It never is. So many of us have stories of being assaulted. It’s never our fault.
Hooray! This pond has been in a year and this morning we found proof that Fillipe and Phillipa have been making themselves at home! #wildlife #wildlifepond #amphibians

That feeling when you are entirely up to date on your paperwork. Time for a little beer.
You know the ewes are in for lambing when you are constantly finding bits of hay in your bra.
