The ewes and ewe lambs have been confined to quite a small paddock, albeit with adlib hay and a lick. It was a lovely day today, cold but sunny, so I let them through into the river paddock. What excitement! The three ewe lambs were leaping and skipping; even the pregnant ewes had a little skip, but not too much. Amazing what a mouthful of fresh grass does for the sheep spirit!

They are back in the small paddock overnight but will be released again tomorrow. Lucy Lamb is big girl - I hope she has some high energy lick tonight or she won't be able to throw her weight around with the same abandon as she did today.
