We are a water shed for irrigated Idaho here as the water runs north in the Salt River then into the Snake River. Took these Pictures today (Sunday April 19th)
Took more just having problems with the bucket.

Looking South at my next hay stack.... sometime next week I should break into it.

We had about 2 inches of rain this last week the snow is still about a foot deep on the meadows. But been nice since Friday hitting the 50s hope the snow is gone in the next few day. But then too it uncovers allot of work
 
Looks like you have more snow left than we do. Those cows are looking good, are you lambing yet?

Have you tried using the bulk uploader on bucket? If I put my pics into a file in my computer I can make the bulk deal work pretty easily. But then, I do a lot of things the long way round.
 
Due date was yesterday and we are a third done with our little bunch as they started a week early. So far so good. NEXT year the ram is not going out till Dec 1.
As our weather can get pretty raw right through May and the shearer (me) is busy with other things, ours don't usually get shorn until early June.
 
got about 20 sheared this afternoon, this evening checking the few cow left to calve one unshorne ewe had a set of quads . which 2 of them are in the kids bathroom.... got a black angus cow with the ewes for the alfalfa, only set of twins off the cows this year.... hopeing the last.
 
You're a lot faster than me. I can get about 8 or 10 done before my back gives out. If I was a little closer to the ground like that Lazy H it would be a little easier. My BIL had a spring loaded sling he would lay/hang in while shearing, haven't tried that yet.
Should be good physio for the shoulder. :D How is it healing?

We had our first set of quads ever a couple days ago, another ewe had a single and now has twins. Momma is going to raise the other three.
 
I helped a neighbor dock and cut lambs yesterday. He is about half done. Left a few that were a bit too young so probably have another round in a week or two. Neighbor was glad to be rid of the snow around his corrals!
