The understory has turned out fantastic. Just as you always wanted and told us. So diverse, filled with light and lush spring green. Your #Zwartbles and you have accomplished a miracle together. Since you also removed the blackberry bushes, there is nothing to obstruct the view
Suzanna, is that the wooded area the #Zwartbles have clean-eaten a few times in the fall? I didn't remember the access to the meadow (where the bamboo grows) being so steep. I finally recognized it by looking up. This arrangement of trees with a view of the sky is unmistakable.
Thank you for regenerating and recultivating your woodland for Ovenmitt and your posterity. You would never have known Ovenmitt's true self and his real purpose. πΏπ³π±πββ¬
Bodacious is a solitary, he still counts his #Zwartbles in the heavenly #BlackSheepFarm. ππππ
Beautiful greeting cards for wintertime. An alternative to the golden Christmas sugar glaze. I'm patiently waiting for the new shipment of the beautiful natural brown wool from the #Zwartbles and alpacas. Hopefully next year again.

π‘πΆπ²πππ²πΌπΌπ΄ππ.ππ | Het Nederlands Zwartbles Schapenstamboek bestaat veertig jaar. Afgelopen weekend vond de jaarlijkse keuring van zwartblesschapen plaats in het Utrechtse Bunschoten. 'De kwaliteit van de dieren is top', concludeert Evert de Vries van de keuringscommissie. #Zwartbles
Didn't you show the top-secret cat room in a video years ago? I think it's in the shed in the orchard under the roof. Have you checked on her during the day to see if she's sleeping there? At night, she will hunt and be in the wood and with the #Zwartbles, or alpacas and sleep during the day.

The #Zwartbles will like the rhythm, they like to wander back and forth between the meadows. #Wanderlust in search of the best herbs. In the orchard they've even created a dirt path through the nettles.
Ode to the beauty of long grasses and butterflies that live within them.
What kind of breed is this? Did you also photograph a #Zwartbles? @suzannacrampton.bsky.social
Do you still remember the name of the #Zwartbles ewe?
Who or what? Perhaps #Zwartbles lambs?
Although the #Zwartbles were very well prepared, the model professionals didnβt come into play this time. For there are simply too many picturesque motifs at the #BlackSheepFarm. π¨πΌ
It's always an honour when you get trusted to knit with another's handspun wool. Blue Texel, Zwartbles and Galway Wool spun by Seamus Kirwan. Sheep sweater designed and knitted by me. Pictures mine. Sheep breed examples.
