Lambs on the Lam! or Rampaging Lambs!!! - 2nd place winner - Modern Impressionists

These little cuties were shot at West Dean College Gardens, near Southampton, England.

 

Rich and Gill took us here and I was immediately smitten by the huge green pastures dotted with white blobs: sheep and lambs.

 

Rich and Gill went off to explore the gardens but I couldn't tear myself away from the sheep. It was hard to get a shot of the lambs because they just wouldn't come close enough. And then, while I was concentrating on shooting a pretty little stream on the pasture's edge, this boisterous wooly quintet formed and bounded towards me.

 

The color on their fur is from paint markings -- I suspect it is to identify both ewe and lamb pairs.

 

Blessings,

Sheree
