When Stig, our toller, was just over a year old we had a cade lamb in the kitchen. She was called Xero as we didn’t hold out much hope she’d pull through. Her mum had mastitis and her sibling unfortunately only lasted a couple of days.
Stig took parenting duties extremely seriously mothering Xero throughout the two weeks she was in the kitchen and looking out for her when she was in the field with the rest of the flock.
Every lambing since Stig is desperate to have a cade lamb to look after. He checks all the lambs to make sure they’re OK, poking his head through the gate when the lambs come over. He has a healthy respect for the ewes keeping well out of their way.
Fortunately for us, if not for Stig, no cade lambs this year.
you get to see the Dawn. To me dawn is so different to dusk particularly when it’s still. After the dawn chorus is so quiet, everything is waking up and there’s a sense of anticipation as to what the day will bring, well at least that’s how it feels to me LOL. And this year we’ve had some amazing sunrises. I haven’t edited these photos this is really what it looked like at the time. The shot with the moon almost looks like daylight, it wasn’t that light the phone has over exposed it somewhat.
Over the last few months, between jobs, I’ve been fitting out a shipping container. The plan is to use it as the preparation area for the charcuterie. Progress has been slow but I’m finally getting there just the electrics, flooring and trim round the window and door and were done. Hopefully my EHO will be as pleased as I am.
Lambing is coming to a close, only 7 ewes left to lamb. Although it’s felt like a hard slog lambing has gone well and the weather has been benign, we must just be getting old lol.
