Mary's Lambs





Mary, my shepherd neighbor friend, has been lambing big time at her farm across the valley. We stopped in to visit her today and check out the babies, including brand new black ewe twins. What fun she is having with her little angels. The weather today was beautiful - bright and cold. Mary has a nifty lamb operation with gated jugs and a maternity ward. She has a winter's load of haylage bales and a tractor to move them around with. Haylage is pickled grass inside of big white plastic bags. They weigh a ton, but when placed in a feeder make very little waste.
