What are ewe laughing at?

Hub had a day out to the footie planned today meaning he had to start work at 5am to get the cattle fed and sheep checked so he could leave at 9am for the train to London.
However 'Sods Law' conspired against him. Firstly, he got a phone call to say that 21 sheep were happily grazing our friend's garden. They shouldn't have been. Then he found that yet another electric fencing unit and battery had been stolen from a field of sheep on the fen.

Yesterday we had three sheep cast, two died and one was left in a bad state. 'Cast' means they're stuck on their backs. Imagine a tortoise on it's back, well sheep get stuck just the same. Then they lie there and panic for a few hours. Then they die. Either that or they lie on their back for so long that their insides get a bit messed up.

So once hub ran around like a blue bottomed whatsit and I got him to his train, I spent the rest of the day shepherding. Last years lambs, all 1200 of them are grazing a few miles away from our farm. It's a pain because you have to cross a major railway line where we always get stuck, sometimes for half an hour each way. Because we'd had a few cast it was decided we should check them twice a day. Making sure no more thieving scum and stolen the fencing units.

The skies were threatening storms all day, alternating between sunshine and thundering rain. I took my camera in the hope of getting a 'lambs-a-leaping' shot. Instead I got this one of one lamb laughing at her friends.
