It has been a very emotional morning as Queen Elizabeth’s little ram lamb died. It was doing fine when we checked on it during the night and early morning, but at 9 o’clock it had died. Queen Elizabeth kept pawing at the straw, crying and looking for her lamb. Jonathan and his friend, Megan, buried it near the Oreo’s lamb that was born dead last year.
We have been so lucky both this year and last – to have only lost one lamb, not to have lost any ewes, but nevertheless it has been a tough morning.
