Two rams got in with the ewes on September 1. One ewe was cycling and was bred (as confirmed by the vets on ultrasound day. We knew that she would lamb in the week between Shearing Day and the Farm Club Retreat. I went to the barn the morning that we were going to leave and found lambs!

Lambs up and nursing, just the way I like to find them! Good job Hailee!

After I brought the ewe and lambs in went out to move the fence and let the sheep into a new paddock.

Even though the sun was up, the fog started to roll in again.

First daffodil, brightening up the gloom of fog!

I was gone from Friday through Sunday. I took this photo Sunday evening. The next lambs aren’t due for three weeks.
