Feeding one of my two bottle lambs in the barn.
Random photos taken around the farm yesterday. It rained for several hours (yay!) and when the sun burst out during a lull, I took a break from cleaning up the greenhouse and grabbed my camera. Our 19 little lambs are growing fast, and hopefully the grass in the fields will soon be too.
Seven more photos below. Hover over each image for a description. . .
Wishing you a cute filled week!
More of the homemade greenhouse? Here.
More Katahdin hair sheep? Here.
More little lambs? Here.
© FarmgirlFare.com, where the first tiny frog of the season was plastered against the glass front door during yesterday's rain. Hopefully it took cover before last night's snow flurries. I don't think frogs like the cold. Want to see some farm frog photos? Right here.
Iris looks like she is going for the drapey shawl look. I'm sure she'll be much more comfortable once it's off.
ReplyDeleteYour photos transport me to my childhood home and the farms surrounding it where we played til dark with sheep and horses and dogs.
ReplyDeleteSusan are you collecting the hair as it is shedding? I bet it is worth a good deal for spinners/weavers. You are getting such healthy lambs - changeover in breed seems to have been wise. Hope this is a MUCH better summer for you - enough rain and no snakes, back injuries and oh yeah - enjoy that nice house!
ReplyDeleteOh dear lord thats a cutie, Oh how envious am I now??
ReplyDeleteThank you for your nice words on my felted hearts, I also really like the colors.
I love the lambs every year. Spring in Saskatchewan will be awhile yet as it just won't quit snowing and flooding is a real possibility again. I enjoy very your column and whether the pictures are flora or fauna they bring me joy and peaceful times.
ReplyDeleteI'm having a mastectomy next week so keep me happy over the next few weeks.

Too adorable. The little lambs backsides all in a row is fabulous! Those colors are amazing. any why is it that drinking from a puddle is always better than water bowl? Our kitty drinks from the overflow tray under the now indoor Meyer lemon, fig and olive trees. We call it pond water, and she loves it! Your homemade greenhouse is fabulous, thanks for the peek inside. Our rhubarb is peeking out of the ground; I do believe Spring is on her way! Congrats on the sweet new babies!
ReplyDeleteThose baby lamb photos make me very glad I'm a vegetarian!
ReplyDeleteThe contrast between Marta and Daisy cracks me up! :)
ReplyDeleteOur dog prefers puddle water too and has now even started drinking out of our redneck fish pond. LOL!!
