Lambs akimbo
31st March 2022
I have been enjoying hours of fun watching lambs careering and chasing each other across local fields in the late, afternoon sunshine.
I love how they gather in little groups and find ways to burn off energy after a lazy day of feeding and nuzzling with mum.It seems as though they have a strong competitive nature and run various heats to determine which lamb may be the fastest sprinter. Noticeably there is always one rebel rouser who winds up the group and gets them to chase him across the field.
More difficult to capture with the camera is their unexpected leaps of sheer joy in the air and despite several attempts I still haven't got a full body shot yet but it's a challenge I happily accept!
