First Lambs

Just a quick shot taken as I was going into town for some grocery shopping this afternoon.
I'd spotted these guys when I was going to work earlier in the week but didn't have time to stop. They weren't very co-operative though and headed in the opposition direction once I stepped out of the car.
It is nice to see all these signs of spring although unfortunately the sunshine that was forecast failed to make an appearance.

Nikon D7000
1/250s f/5.6 at 105.0mm iso640 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Things are looking very lush. Nice to see the young ones.

An encouraging sign that winter won't last forever! Such a pretty, green scene.

Never a better subject that a new born lamb.
I wish the animals would understand that we don't mean to harm them and that is alright to stand still, or come closer, and pose.

Wouldn't be Ireland if there wasn't a black sheep somewhere

I found the secret around here is to turn up in a ancient Land Rover and they come scurrying towards you! The promise of spring.

Ah, did I not predict a lamb PAD a mere two days ago!
I don't think that you lost anything by the lack of cooperation; having the large expanse of grassland with only a couple of lambs and sheep suggests something at its very beginning; all that open space, yet to be filled by little hoofprints.
