Oh the Cuteness . . .
. . . that is lambcam!
Watching it this morning before I go to work - and at this time there looks to be a mama in labor - she is in the white round “box” and seems very restless. She keeps getting up and moving around and I see a lot of panting.
Yeah, I’m a city girl . . but I have had two babes of my own and have seen three of my seven grands enter the world and I know from panting - you know? (I learned my “hee-hees” well, thank you very much)
I am mesmerized by the lamb cam - this is actually the first time I’ve gotten to see any action - I somehow seem only to check it out when it is night time here in Alaska - and, we being 4 hours behind the east coast, that means that it is 0-dark-thirty there. Poot!
We tend not to think of it getting dark “Outside” (as we call the lower 48 states) at night this time of year - our daylight hours are increasing every day - and the sun does not set currently until after 9.
So, it was fun to check the cam this morning to see little lambs gamboling about the paddock and playing amongst the chickens. Called the granddaughter back to see, but they did not cooperate while she was watching. And, as it is about that time, she needed to finish her breakfast so she can catch the bus on time.
Looks like there are 23 kids so far - as of yesterday’s count - they don’t say how many are left to kid yet. Like I said the one looks like she might be ready any time.
Enjoy - I’ll check in with you all later.
