Changing Pastures

Today's post is in celebration of the simple joy of moving sheep on a sunny afternoon. I can't remember the last time I rotated pastures with the sun shining. The only good thing about wet weather is the grass is still growing like mad. Fingers crossed for a solid week of dry so we can make hay. Check out the mid-afternoon long shadows, a true sign of the season.

In the meantime, sheepies love tall grass. Nom, nom nom . . . . .

 

Thanks to everyone for sharing my frustration over my Rhinebeck fiasco. More about that and about the wrap-up of our fall KAL, and about pupsters, and about Sheep Shares 2012 in another post.

Soon.

We got our hay in last week here in Pennsylvania. Good luck with yours!

Great photos! They are really starting to pack on fleece. Fingers crossed for a dry week.

Barb,
...And Bon Appetit to the sheep! Missed you at Rhinebeck. Does this mean you have extra dyed wool to sell? Will we be seeing it on Etsy soon?

I see many of the sheep without coats....? Please share with us how many you coat, and what you do with the wool of those sheep who remain uncoated. Beautiful pictures and, as always, thank you for sharing!

I love the 'single file' picture -- they're even marching on the same foot! Do you feel like the Pied Piper?

They look so happy to be in tall grass again. What a difference between pastures!
