Winter in the Pohangina valley. But the first lamb appeared earlier this week, and the first flowers have opened on the fruit tree near the gate.All content © 2009 Pete McGregor

Ents.
Indeed, Zhoen.
But didn't you just love the way they spoke??? Just got back from a weekend on an island - island-time - so I sorta feel like an ent ... This is a.w.e.s.o.m.e. My father-in-law raised sheep for a while near the Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia ... the little lambs were, of course, adorable ... the adults were ... sheep:)
Barbara, there was a lot of whispering going on, and most of it was over my head.
Actually, I was away for the weekend too, and even in those couple of days, new lambs appeared and the fruit tree's flowering vigorously. Things are starting to move fast now.
I was up on No. 4 line in the valley yesterday afternoon and there certainly were plenty of lambs to be seen. Still time for a cold snap though...
Spring comes in the blue of the sky.
Andrew, I'm trying to ignore the possibility of a cold snap. Denial seems to be working well so far. ;^)
Michael, there's definitely a change in the quality of light.
