Virginia is for Pasture Farmers!
Last 3 pairs moved in with the rest. They all move to the next paddock in a few days.

Nasty 91F so far, gross weather, at least humidity isn't too bad at 53. Full sun, to boot!

Sheep were moved!
Tall grass, but the specks are sheep, I swear!

Those pictures from the other day of the little brown lamb reminds me of the Ewoks from Star Wars, lol.
So cute! I am really enjoying your photos

Writing up the waiting list for next year & I'm wondering about the name theme.

Trees?
Willow, Sycamore, Maple, Ash, Birch, Sequoia, Oak, Spruce, Cedar, Banyan, Papaya, Pawpaw, Magnolia, Hickory, Hawthorn, Elm, Fir, Aspen, Sassafras, Neem,
Mahogany, Hemlock, Larch, Locust, Pine, Eucalyptus.

I no longer name wethers. Happened by accident this year and I'll stick with it. Rams/ewes sold not registered will also lack names.

Or should I think of a different name theme? Hmm...

Mowed the 5th paddock. Took half the usual time, even though it rained this morning, which would of stopped mowing altogether. That was nice. One of the reed varieties the sheep only partly ate and those were the biggest issue and needed a second pass.
So, that was the first mowing of any paddock for this year, which is nice.
