Snowy Lambing

Well, the snow is coming down hard, big downy flakes. And my cheviot cross ewe is down under the cedar tree working hard at lambing. I've been watching her with the binoculars as she gets up to sniff, then lies down to push again. It shouldn't be much longer. Once she has her baby on the ground, I can pick it up and bring it into the lambing pen...she'll follow it. At least there's not much wind and it's actually above freezing. Lambs are remarkably hardy and this really isn't bad lambing weather, even with the snow.
