Moorland mamas

These ewes are out braving the cold winds and temps, they will be taken in shortly to lamb I would think. They’re always a bit later than field ewes to give birth. This year I don’t think it’s been as hard on them as the weather has been cold and dry not snowy, I still wouldn’t want to winter with the weather they do endure. !!
Best on black

Don't know where the grassy tufts end and the ewes begin :-)

A lovely capture, their thick fleeces should protect against the cold weather

Beautiful rural scene. With that coat on I don't think they would mind the cold.
