Well ... we had our first snow on the weekend. I took these pictures December 2nd ... just before the layer of freezing rain arrived and made life ... interesting ... :-)
The BFLs use their height to good advantage at the 'feeder'.
The ewe lambs just kind of had fun with it. I broke up breeding groups Dec 1st, and they were glad to be back together ... and to have the snow to play in seemed an added bonus. Oh too be young again!
The Shetlands loved the snow and most stayed out and enjoyed it.
The BFLs took refuge in a barn ... whenever they took a break from eating ... ;-)
Billie Holiday thought that the BFLs were TOTAL wimps ... and even told them so!
FirthofFirth Masala Chai ... assured everyone that this is NOTHING compared to what she was used to in Wisconsin!Life is good ... especially if you are a sheep.

The ewe lamb in the first solo photo sure is a lovely thing!
Bill, the photos of the sheep were very nice. Very clear. The one of the BFL's was especially nice. Looks like it should be a cover to a magazine! You should send a copy of it to the MFF....they often have photos sent in "painted" by an artist for the cover of the MFF magazine!

Hi Bill -
Great photos! I personally love the first snow of the season as do my sheep. :0)
Was wondering, what do you use around your round bales? I have started feeding them but haven't found anything that works succesfully to leave them freestanding and not in a corner.
Thanks -
