Hardy little buggas

We had no fresh snow this morning - first time in two weeks!
These Swaledales have been up on top of the hill throughout all the bad stuff.
They'll lamb up there too, outside and unassisted mainly.

Cold and bleak but beautiful scenery.

Tough girls.

Those girls must be so glad of their woollen coats eh!

Let's hope you don't get too much more snow. It makes for great images but is hell for the poor farmers.

Marvelous shot of this flock against a wonderful scenic background.

you've still got snow!?
Guest 31-Mar-2013 22:31
So stalwart and proud in their element, a wonderful scene

It may be they are waiting for the thaw before becoming mums. They look a hardy bunch!

True Northern grit:-) Same for us as well - first time now snow for over two weeks, I am devastated:-(

You are going to need to get them some Uggs boots to keep them warm. Is this late for snow?
Sheena Woodhead31-Mar-2013 21:42
But enjoying the little bit of sunshine I see!
Máire Uí Mhaicín31-Mar-2013 20:41
They do indeed look hardy but will the little lambs be ok?
Brian Samuel31-Mar-2013 20:23
Bet they are real gossips too!
Ton T.31-Mar-2013 19:44
Real tough sheep! Lovely image!

Great image of these very hardy sheep.

a splendid sheepscape; amazing how much colour they have when against actual white

The white background makes this "group portrait" particularly good! V.
