I've mentioned that we're surrounded by sheep- we've even got a flock across the street. I love to watch them race and frolic out of our big window, so on Monday I got my camera and went outside.
Unfortunately, my presence made the races stop. It was really cold, so I sat on the wall as long as I could, but, while they did calm to my being there, they didn't resume the festivities.
I may or may not be plotting this little guy's lamb-napping...
This gang was very curious about me.
This lamb was the most curious!

I mentioned yesterday that it was snowing. On my way to work this morning I pulled over and took a picture to show you the sad little huddles that were in each field.
Back to my neighbor-flock at lunchtime.
This isn't the best image, but I always crack up at how the lambs treat their mums as jungle gyms- they climb on them, sleep on them, stand on them, leap over them, etc.
The snow melted throughout the afternoon, and after work I was greeted by some lambs celebrating the sunshine. These two were head butting each other.
Back to normal, albeit a soggy and chilly one!
I've got big plans tomorrow, and if it pans out, I'll be bringing you pictures from my second brush with HRH Queen Elizabeth II!
