In the middle of lambing here on Irish Archaeology farm, tis a bit hectic... #lambing #yeaning #sheep #tired
8 January. Cherish farm animals in bad weather: “By brambles and bushes, in pasture too full Poor sheep be in danger, and loseth their wool. Now therefore thy ewe upon lambing so near, Desireth in pasture, that all may be clear.’ (Good Husbandry, 1575) #folklore #wildlife
