First lamb of 2014

Jura has had a lamb, the first of the season. This is her second lamb, she has chosen nice warm weather for it. We don't know yet if it is a boy or a girl, it will probably be a while before she lets us near it - although she is quite friendly normally. Sometimes you can tell from a distance by whether they stand or crouch to pee.

It is teeny tiny, you can just see it feeding here, in the center of the picture with mum facing us. I expect the others in this flock will follow over the next month. The other flock will lamb later this year as Harris, the ram, was out of action for a while after being caught in the electric fence. I expect it will be April before they start.
