The other night I thought that Bridge, a 13 or 14 year-old sheep, was dying. She seemed fine the next day. Last night I heard Bridge making strange noises. Was she in her death throes?

This morning I came out to the sheep barn and saw an afterbirth on the straw. I looked in the field and there was Bridge with a lamb.

Jeremy picked them up and we led mother into a pen in the barn

Using last year’s Jacob wool fleeces, we have covered one of the rhubarb bed to mulch out the weeds and the grass. It might not work but it looks like an art installation to me – by the Old British Art group not the Young British Artists of yesteryear.

Here is a YouTube close/up video with sound (not my video)
