To bed. Just had supper after a night-time whip
round: three ewes recently lambed, and a fox barking
nearby in the wood. Scooted round in the quad bike,
picking them up to bring them in. Sheep look
unearthly under headlights and head torches, eyes
glinting back in the dark. New-found respect for the
animals as we leave them to deal with the night.
