The flock is home!

A HUGE thank you to George Lake and his helper Mack!  As many read last week, our Kahtadin floock crossed the creek in our pasture while the water level was low, then when the water level rose to normal levels their fear of running water returned. After nearly a dozen attempts trying to get the flock back accross Warriors Mark Run on my own, it took less than 15 minutes for three of us to get them back home.  Here are a few pictures, but they don't give the "project" justice!  It was amazing to watch a skilled dog and handler at work.  With a simple command the dog would retrieve the sheep that would circle around us, and hold the flock at the waters edge.  I was then able to catch a few single ewes and nudge them into the creek...it was awfully cold water and the dog was behind them, so they decided it was in their best interest to head fro the barn!  After a few crossed the flock quickly followed!   We  were just in time--as of today we have 7 new lambs!
