Strange shoots

These are Hosta shoots poking through the soil in our garden. I only noticed them properly today and was just thinking how they are quite weird looking before their leaves start unfurling.

I didn't really have much time to myself today to take a photo I was pleased with, so thought these little shoots will have to do. I tried to get a nice shot of the new lambs, but whenever I got close enough to the fence to see them, I realised that I was making the mother sheep nervous and worried, so I gave up on that for today.
