Hundreds of ewes take ad-
vantage of the sun on an un-
seasonably warm, early-spring
Montana afternoon before
heading to the "Night Barn"
and the protection it offers
from both natural predators
and the evening chill.
It
was a typical, rural Montana, early spring night featuring a cloudless, ink black
sky with corner to corner stars, so bright they almost hurt your eyes to look at
through the thin, frosty air. I wasn't losing sleep to stargaze on this night though,
and only caught occasional glimpses of the night sky through a crack in the barn
door while wrestling with an old ewe.
