Little Lambs


These lambs seem to eat constantly

It is spring in this area, and that means lambs! A few weeks ago these little lambs could barely walk, and never left their mum's side. It has been fun to watch as the lambs grow older and more adventuresome. Today we saw, again, some nearly newborn lambs, barely able to stand and walk, along with some older lambs. We also came across a full grown sheep who was definitely outside of his pasture. Frightened by our car, he nimbly jumped over a 3 to 4 foot stone wall and back into his field. Who knew?! Anyway, Scott took some pictures of the sheep and lambs in Buttermere today. Enjoy!

My favourite little lamb! We watched him for quite a while. He never left his mom's side!

This new born had to be moved with a little help from the mindful dog.
