The ram has a harness fitted to him with a box of red reddle marker attached, so that when he mounts a ewe he leaves a red mark on her bottom and the farmer knows she should be in lamb. The marker is changed for another colour every fortnight and then the farmer knows lambing dates. Clever eh?The Weaver of Grasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947971556343746883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-23033623998871374152008-12-10T00:39:00.001-08:002008-12-10T00:39:00.001-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.The Weaver of Grasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947971556343746883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-53711370716706075932008-12-10T00:39:00.000-08:002008-12-10T00:39:00.000-08:00First - Major thanks to Dominic Rivron for sorting...First - Major thanks to Dominic Rivron for sorting out my holly header!!

Reading about your plants in your garden at this time of year, I think of how the low light shines dramatically through foliage and glances off twigs. I have wonderful red-stemmed cornus, and a Phormium tenax 'Sundowner' which look ethereal in these conditions.<BR/>My front steps look like cheese-cake base today - must have overdone the grit!Raph G.

Wonderful to know life is still in the garden. Mine ended up being drowned by flooding last winter and the cows have finished it off. Back to starting all over again.<BR/>Hope the ram is doing what he needs to. With the marks on the ewes I'd think so.<BR/><BR/>Take care Great post.<BR/><BR/>LizLizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05100812038496671783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-70007586953158316522008-12-09T13:24:00.000-08:002008-12-09T13:24:00.000-08:00Wonderful snowy photo.

I have winter jasmine which I love, and polyanthus here and there but my hellebores come later. There were violets not long ago but I haven't looked recently.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06826501916623305535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-70418243035240018642008-12-09T11:47:00.000-08:002008-12-09T11:47:00.000-08:00Lovely winter photo.

C) That you know all the names of these flowers and sound so impressive! It looks like I have a lot to study up on during the winter, flower names being on of those things. D) That you have a ram, and refrain from calling him Rambo (that was an assumption.) and E) That so many of them have red bottoms!...and I have no idea if that's a good thing or a bad thing...what in the world does it mean?Red Cloverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11905304732342794946noreply@blogger.com
