Sheepses

Hello there! Today is the chirpiest day I've had in weeks, and so today I am brave enough to bare my soul on the internets, by which I mean 'post pictures with scant captions to avoid saying something boring'.
So. Sheep. Sheeeeeeep. There are about 150 sheep here, but only a handful have names and can be bribed with treats for a pat. These cuties were hand raised due to difficult births.
Woolly friends enjoying cabbage and apples.

Only one of these is as noisy as a Year 8 Maths class:
Pamela van der Spenkel (or Pankel for short)
Pankel is a cheeky sheep who likes apples and demanding more apples. If I were writing her school report I would say, "Pamela is an enthusiastic and attentive sheep who enjoys participating in class discussions and is always keen to investigate new ideas." Most of these new ideas involve tasty house plants.

Another delightful sheep is Bums. She has sweet little short legs, a cute Miffy face, and will stay for a pat even if it turns out I don't have apples. She is the only one who has worked out how to get her head through the fence to nom the delicious greener grass AND get it back out again.



Anyways, I need to snatch my apple crumble out of the oven so I will finish there. Thanks for reading and have a good day if you can :)
