Sheperds fear and loathe deep snow and drifting winds. Snow kills. It buries sheep. It buries the grass and makes them even more dependent on us for survival. So we suffer everyone else’s excitement. Snowballs. Snowmen. Sledging. We fear it.”<br />On the other hand Rebanks states winter is beautiful too: “But winter is also pure brilliant cloudless days when all is well in the world - when the fields dry out, the sheep are at peace, full of hay, lying in the sunshine, and we can work and also enjoy the beauty of the valley and its wildlife.”Ipstrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17138759586019567115noreply@blogger.com
