SOME PICTURES OF THE
PROJECT

Tommy was a lamb that had been orphaned on a
neighbour's farm. When we had a sheep that lambed, and then the lamb died, Neil
went ands got this lamb from the neighbour for her to suckle. That's the
theory. In spite of all the old shepherd's tricks, the ewe would not recognise
the new lamb, she would not let him suckle, though he was very persistent. So
Tommy got special attention from the bucket to supplement his grazing (and
amused us enormously by his very imaginative attempts to suckle - like when his
"Mother" was stuck solid between two others, and couldn't get away!) The bucket
looks a strange colour - but was used to lime-wash some of the buildings. tommy
doesn't seem to object.![]()
