Deanburnhaugh

Feeding the flock we transported to the paddock yesterday, we noticed how disturbed they were, in contrast to the other sheep that have been grazing at the paddock for a couple of months.

They, two tups, one ewe with two lambs, stood at the top of the hill watching the others feed. Now some might say this is because they have been unsettled because of displacement, but at both grass keeps the flocks are very jumpy, and near impossible to round up. Sheep do get bothered, have problems, but how disturbed they are is concerning; we have noticed contention to our presence from people driving by in cars. Few borders people actually know us, several months I've resided here yet have still to make one Scottish friend.
