New Neighbour

On a lovely, sunny morning I was pegging out the washing when Neighbour P called me over.  We are used to the usual cats and dogs, and the occasional fox and badger on our street, but a lamb is a first.  P and her partner D have the smallholding at the end of the street and this newish lamb was one of triplets and rejected by her Mum.  So P is now her new Mum.  The lamb has a dodgy back leg which P is watching carefully, apparently it could be due to an accident or a lack of colostrum at birth.  Whatever the reason the two hourly feeds seem to be building her strength so fingers crossed she thrives.
