First Lamb!

There's a short length of public footpath that goes up past Garibaldi Terrace and feeds into the Offa's Dyke Path as it heads up Cusop Dingle. I took Islay up there this evening. Just inside the first field is a small barn - the sheep had been penned up there, and I just caught a glimpse of my first lamb of the year between the legs of the ewes.
The rain has stopped, more or less, now, and it's ridiculously mild for the time of year. Last time, it seemed to be horribly cold until May, but this year the bulbs are already pushing up green shoots, and I'll be going out looking for snowdrops very soon now.
