All part of the story

Not the norm

Herdwick lambs are not normally this colour when they are born . They are usually black and over the course of the summer, their faces will whiten and their fleeces will go that wonderful chestnut brown.  These two were born on Friday and are much lighter.   We aren't experienced enough to know why or whether they will continue to change colour, and if so to what!   It will be interesting to see. 

M and her friend left on the 11am ferry.  It was SO flat calm.    On the way home I went to photograph the wonderful community orchard which is literally blossoming at the moment.  It was lovely hearing lots of different birdsong as we sat and drank our coffee in the sun.
