'Give My Head Peace'.

It's hard for new mums to get a minute's peace and quiet.
This ewe was lying down enjoying her siesta when her
lamb began climbing on her back. Soon, there was nothing
for it but to get up on her feet and give her baby
a mid day feed.

Yep, no rest for the new mums...these babies need feeding! Nice and sharp Mairead, and a lovely OoF background too

That's so true. No rest for new Mamas, whether they are people or animals.

She doesn't seem to mind.

Very sweet shot. Just enough depth to keep both critters sharp and to give a nice, soft verdant background. Alas, mother sheep don't have the option of shoving the kids in front of the TV.
