Fertile fields

Our drive round today passed many fields with the new crop of lambs. These ranged from some obviously a week or so old to others in the grass being licked into shape by proud Mum.
Pointy nose dog and I were looking through a fence at a farm where we buy their meat. Just sizing up my dinner to come! Sable knows that all forms of livestock are off limits but this lamb was clearly curious and came towards us. The angle makes it difficult to show but it was for all the world as if the damn thing was pointing at us like a bird dog. Maybe a new breed - North Northumberland shorthaired sheep? Posted by Picasa
