Does anyone know when ewes start producing milk here in
Newfoundland? It is bound to be later than in Ireland, and
may be around now. And it has been used as one marker
of Imbolc or Oimelc (ewes' milk), so perhaps this could be
considered a very late Imbolc. :-)
(And the movie Groundhog Day did end eventually, but
I don’t know if Sisyphus ever got over the top.)
