My beautiful ewe, Bodkin, passed away due to complications from lambing. Her son has been so depressed. Now that Yule is well enough to play with other lambs, he's been jumping for joy.

Yule is doing great! She's such a busy girl. She has to help Buddy with his inspections, help the humans feed the big sheep, and now she has a newbie bottle lamb to train. He hasn't 100% figured out where the milk comes from yet.

Yule is tired out after all her adventures! Laps make the best napping spots.

Lunch break walk with Yule and Buddy!
Yule is putting her weight fully on her injured leg now, but we're continuing to provide some support and attempting to increase her activity levels with moderation. Yule adores Buddy and would follow him anywhere.
Buddy lives his life like an action hero, practicing parkour over rocks and trees. His route choices are not age and ability appropriate for Yule yet, so he's being a gentleman and walking on leash with his little friend.

This is Yule!
She was born December 25th, 2024, and had a rough start. She's got a broken leg, but she doesn't let that slow her down (which is why all pictures of her that aren't blurry are during post-milk snuggle time).

Happy New Year! Last sunset of 2024.

The aromatic compounds on this Yerba Santa were dissolved in the rain, then dried and crystallized in the sunshine. These smell amazing when it starts to rain.

Lord Fluffington, Duke of Woolsley, isn't feeling well. Please send well-wishes. He's at UC Davis right now.

Some of you may remember him as the bottle lamb that lived in the house and pestered Abby until he jumped off of Jasmine and Yuri's stairs onto the fridge and scared Jasmine half to death. He's been to many petting zoo events and is a professional good boy.

Lily had an appointment with the donkey-whispering farrier, Shane! We're 2-3 trims away from fully healthy hooves!

Lily had never met a farrier who could work with her without sedation, she even tried to kick her regular humans when we worked on her feet, but she took to Shane right away. Best farrier ever!

I was admiring the markings on this adorable jumping spider when they did me a favor and pounced on a fly! Just another reason to love these guys. I hope you grow big and fat, little one. Eat ALL the flies.

Jasmine and Yuri have been waiting all year for this morning! Bindweed Turret Bee (Diadasia bituberculata) is finally out as its host, Calystegia purpurata, is open!

Sometimes these two are out and about in May, so we've been waiting with baited breath for our first sightings.

Overcast skies make the best sunsets. Grateful for this pleasant weather.
