The sheeps last few weeks

The five ewes are enjoying the spring sunshine.  They have been busy basking in the sun after the felling works to improve the views and expand the wildflower grassland have finished.  All five appear to be in lamb and will be returning back home soon to give birth to their lambs.

Hungry Happy Snow Sheep!

The five remaining ewes made it through the cold snap, they were very pleased to see staff, volunteer sheepwatchers and the graziers with hay and sheep nuts for them, whilst the snow covered every inch of Browns Folly last week.  Here are a few of our favourite photos of their happy faces!

Sheep in the Snow

The five remaining sheep seem happy in the snow! They have plenty of hay and sheep nuts at the moment, but keep checking if your out and about at Browns Folly over the coming days.  Thank you!

Randy the Ram Eats, Shoots and Leaves...

Randy the Ram has now left the ewes and gone home.  He is apparently a little thin and worn out as he is older than the rest and not quite as hardy.  We now have five ewes left in the grassland to keep an eye on.  Thanks for all your efforts.
