The snow has come at the worst possible time, the lambing sheds are full and the lambs in the field are too cold and wet.

The snow has come again... But there we have the sun again, and they seem to be happy with that...
Fantastic light Johny ! V

Hopefully the weather will get a little warmer soon, Johnny!BV

Oh, I hope that snow melts really fast and warmth of spring makes all well.

That doesn't sound good, John . I hope all will be we'll in the end.

Hope you don't have any losses John!

Wonderful image of the poor sheep, know how they feel.

It is a nice rural picture to look at but the story behind it is not so good. I hope your lambs are OK, and the weather dries up soon.

hence the sense of alarm here..no weather for the young and vulnerable..

A lovely scene even it isn't very timely.

Send the little ones down here. I need some cute subjects and I promise not to eat them.
Great wintery shot of this pair.

Poor lambs...hopefully it will get warmer next week.

That is a super image,John!Feel sorry for ewes all but guess they are made of strong stuff in your part of the country!:>)

I was surprised the farmers were turning them out earlier up your way than here, but maybe they are more used to it

Indeed, I feel sorry for the lambs this time of year, it's so cold.
A lovely shot though.

Well isolated pair.
Martin Lamoon19-Mar-2013 20:25
Take some hope to thaw out!
A well composed picture. v

Unfortunately it seems you are forecast even more snow. Nice shot of the mums though.
