On closer inspection it was a boy, and Claude the Charollais had been at it again.

The other sheep came over to meet the newest member of the flock. He was only out, soaking wet, but Rosie was working on that.


Flora investigates.

Liz investigates.

Bob was the most interested of all. When Penny lambed in the shed, right in front of him, Bob freaked out. He tried to jump out of the pen! That didn't really work out for him, and I had to open the hurdles to let him out before he hurt himself or someone else. But out here in the field he just stood and stared for a while.


Rosie had a traumatic lambing last year that resulted in a dead lamb. She was heartbroken. I am so happy to see her with her own lamb at last - and I can tell she's happy too.


Little Barnaby stuck close to mummy.




There was changeable weather ahead, including Storm Hannah, so I brought the two of them indoors for safety. They both returned to the field today.

Welcome to the flock, Barnaby, it's wonderful to have you.

Yay Rosie :-D
