This time it was planned: Adelie and Swan


Monday around lunchtime, Adelie lambed.  Once again, she was LOUD.  This time, she was very fast as well.   Her lamb is a single ram lamb.  He looks just like grandpa Cypress.  His name is Iced Tea.  It's hard to get a picture of him because of this:

Adelie thinks I want a pic of her.  Or that the camera is edible.

Swan lambed a couple of hours later.  We arrived at the barn immediately after lamb number one was delivered (after five years of doing this, I'm finally starting to time it just right).  We've named this white ewe lamb Sprite, because she was running around all over the drop pen while Swan was delivering lamb number two.  Her second lamb is a white ram lamb with a brown back leg and a few other small spots.  His name is Seltzer.

 Seltzer tried to lay in a bowl just like every other lamb we've ever had, but he couldn't quite figure it out.

Seltzer hugs the bowl.

He's not quite in the bowl yet.
