Sheep Instead Of Water

L1110368

Despite weeks and weeks of intermittent rain, the reservoirs around here are VERY low.  So low the sheep have taken up residence where the water ought to be (spot them lying on the sandy area in the middle of the picture).

The pool on the moor edge has dried up altogether (I worry about the frogs).  And the ponds on the moor across the valley are nothing but glorified puddles.

All of which lends credence to the fact that there are parts of the country officially suffering from drought.

So sorry to hear and see this drought situation for your sheep. May the rains come and may they fill all the spaces that need filling. www.facebook.com/middlegroundsages
