Irelandscapes | Spring Lambs on Slemish Mountain - (N Irish Farming Scenery On Film) @Irelandscapes | Uploaded February 2022 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
The beginning of May '21 and these new lambs are entering the most entertaining phase of their development for the observor. They are playful and boisterous, noisy and very curious with the strength to explore all parts of their enclosure.
Slemish offers some spectacular all round views of the surrounding patchwork quilt agriculture of County Antrim. This does not require a full ascent either, and there are established paths and some railing to help folk acquire a good viewpoint. This hill is of course the legendary beginning of St Patricks religious career in Ireland. The story has it he was a shepherd here for six years from the ages of sixteen to twenty two and that the solitude inspired his turning to Christian prayer.
