Woodburn paddock was overloaded with sheep after returning a flock from the Craik Forest. Charlie loaded six ewes and transported them to Selkirk grass keep.
Two lambs are now weaning Woodburn Farmhouse, their mother ewes taken to Selkirk as grass on our paddock runs out.
Not everything goes to plan, when insufficient fencing is holding the sheep.

Our Herdick mother ewe is caught and penned for transport to grass keep.
After I disappeared upstairs, Charlie regained his composure and successfully rounded up the flock from the paddock.We pulled out tup lambs and others from the holding penned, until we were left with six sheep.

I opened the grass keep gate and Charlie drove into the field, then unloaded.

These sheep have been more excited to see us, they have a lot of grass here, and it's peaceful for them; better for us they are contented.
We messaged the organisers to report they were displaying the wrong date on their sign near Ashkirk, not good that.
