Lambs... no seriously... lambs

[Bitfik]

At this time of year I'm always on the lookout for the first lambs and daffodils of the year. Kind of a reassurance that spring isn't too far away.


Today I saw the first few lambs. No daffodils yet.


Anyone else look for (or have seen) the first signs of spring?

You should never go with seeing lambs as a sign of spring. Lots of farmers now lamb their ewes inside now as they can then lamb earlier to get into the market earlier for the chance of a better price. It gives the lambs a good start before they go to field and less chance of a fox or badger taking stronger lambs and they dont have cubs to feed until April.
All we have here is the strong sign of winter, snow, ice and -3

Heard on Radio 4 that the lambs are dying straight after being born because they are being conceived when mossies are still about, so they are catching some virus. Sounds very unpleasant.

and that ladies and gentlemen is why I always keep a fly swatter handy when I'm sinking the purple pole.
