Cool & overcast

We officially have 58 sheep who refuse to be confined. We are considering giving some of them to Nelson Mandela as a gift.

We have begun tagging lambs; the difficulty is in keeping their heads still, resulting in a farmer being sprayed with a bit of lamb blood once due to moving head at the wrong time. No other harm done, mercifully.

All of the trees now have tree guards. Life is good, and soon we will begin culling and filling our freezer with fresh lamb and mutton.
