A rare drop of January sunshine here today, so the lambing ewes enjoyed a little natural Vitamin D for a change. All tucked up back in the sheds for the night now, as tomorrow may not be clement?!
#TheAnclarFlock
High winds and 19mm of rain came with the first named storm for this generation of young ewe lambs! A little bewildered, but shaking like wet dogs, and glad of some dry matter, they are all fine! #theanclarflock
Scanning Christmas Eve, and I am reminded of the work to come! This little lamb is Pollen (Polly for short). She is now nearly a year old and is friendly, confident and calm - a credit to the flock! #theanclarflock

“Hello Dinner Lady, I hope you have hay” she said … #theanclarflock
Tuppence and Ha’Penny, all grown up now, were shorn for the first time yesterday, as was their Mum, Guinea (one of my favourites). #theanclarflock

Calm happy thoughts this argumentative Friday! I watched her for a while, she was avoiding the daisy flowers!

I was asked tonight about the little premature lamb … he is doing well - here being watched by a rather spesh #ExmoorHorn ewe lamb “3D” (Thruppence) #theanclarflock
The hoggs (last year’s lambs) are bemused by the buzzing of pollinators in the pear and cherry blossom. It’s making them a little bit skittish!! #theanclarflock
Excited to see how this newly dyed Blue grey cards up … such a delicate colour, perfect for clouds! Photo of Exmoor Horn ewe with her lamb - this wool is great for #needlefelting

Crossing the footbridge like their Mummies taught them to when they were baby lambs? #cleversheep #theanclarflock
The stained glass lamb was inspired by my watercolour of #Elonthelamb born last summer and shown here with his Dad! #theanclarflock
So I posted about winding wool … forgot to mention raking the hay from the pasture and trimming ewes bums … gotta be done! #theanclarflock
Winding wool today #theanclarflock

This weekend will herald the start of lambing for three of my friends … they will be mostly outdoors so I wish them fair weather!

This is “3D” (Thruppence) posing by Aluric’s Hall, something tells me that 3D is going to be quite a character!

The welcome I get bringing hay! #theanclarflock
Remember the little premature lamb? He is growing … #theanclarflock
Happy Valentines Day from us at #TheAnclarFlock - photo shows Rae with her lamb Sunny yesterday… out having adventures
Dotty taught her lambs well, they learned on a rainy day, when shelter was desirable, but it became a form of play …

Nothing like a snuggle of lambs on a chilly night! #theanclarflock
By popular demand … #theanclarflock #nextgen (sound up for birdsong and jumping thuds!🎶🐦⬛)
When that midnight lamb is born
as you help it latch on
and have a little snooze
in the flank of the ewe …

Meanwhile, that is aside from lambing, the shearlings are enjoying their daily hay … #theanclarflock - a bunch of lucky sheep!
One for the #needlefelters … #landscape #colours from #theanclarflock … a fabulous mix of textures and colours …
Premature lamb and his Ma had a spell in the garden today - he has learned to suck milk from her (which is great, no more night feeding for me!!). She, meanwhile, is teaching him to be rude, and stick out his tongue … #theanclarflock #fun
Little Theia had a bad eye, but it’s all sorted now, I am happy to say … #theanclarflock
