This hill is covered in limestone boulders, with a gorgeous little river running by. We hiked through a sheep farm in the beginning. Thousands of baby lambs died last week all over New Zealand because of a cold spring storm that hit. Farmers don't have shelters for sheep since they don't usually need them, but during lambing season, the weather can get deadly for the little ones. Unfortunately that cold snap this year made it one of the worst lambing seasons ever.
Okay now that is very sad about those little baby lambs dying because of the spring storm:( But on a happier note you look great in that first picture Cath. Before you know it summer will arrive and your family will be there with you for Christmas!
ReplyDeleteIt was really sad to see all the dead baby lambs. They showed it on the news- truck loads of them. But the warmer weather seems to have arrived so all should be well from now on!
