Signs of spring

There are lots of buds bursting on my roses 



And bulbs are emerging from their slumber 



The magnolia looks like it’s ready to explode 



The dwarf black mulberry is waking up




Daffodils are coming along nicely 



More bulbs. Can’t remember what went where 
I guess we’ll find out when they flower 



While outside taking these photos I could hear baby lambs calling to their mummies   Not mine. Across the road 
We no longer have a ram and we need to decide what we are going to do with our herd. 

So spring is in its way. It doesn’t feel it as yet weather wise. But the days are getting longer.  
The wheel is slowly turning

  1. Do you shear your sheep? Can you hire a ram to do the deed like you do with dogs? You can see I have absolutely no idea about farming at all!

    1. No my sheep are self shedders so they just kinda give themselves a hair cut.
      I could probably hire a ram but it’s is cost efficient to just buy one. Rams are like roosters. You only need the one Once you come to knitting group I’ll tutor you in farming lol
