Yesterday was yet another busy Saturday. After checking the ewes with Fly…
…It was time to bring some ewe-lambs (1-year-olds) from an out farm
back to the main farm. Kim was loaded into the Land Rover and we set
off.
Kim loves to look out of the back window.

She even has a chin rest.
Kim loves being in the Land Rover.
She knows that the Land Rover means work. Who doesn’t like work?
Kim’s rounding up isn’t the most elegant thing in the world, but it works.
After the flock had been rounded up, we ‘drew’ them home. Kim was
able to put the ewe-lambs into the trailer with ease, and we were on our
way home with our first trailer full of lambs very quickly.
While we were on the road, Kim had a quick break in the back of the Land Rover.
But she was soon required again, to put more sheep on the trailer. We had six trips in all - that is about 105 ewe-lambs.
The lambs in the Sucking Station had a rather more relaxing day…
And Ben didn’t do anything all day either.

Wow! Kim is amazing. She clearly loves her job. And I'm sure Ben was supervising, even if it was from a distance.
