Changes in environment



Been talking to various people.

1) was telling of this person that puts sheep to the mountain, roughly
Annamoe-Roundwood area. He had a major job collecting them up last
year for bringing home late Autumn. Most of the other people had
given up, heather waist high in places, bracken likewise, with
consequent complications, ticks on himself and sheep.

There are stories of having to try to gather sheep on one's own during
the week, while the partimers are out only over the weekend. Some of
these mountains are covered with fog some days, and rain, of course,
can make visibility poor as well, which can be very dangerous.
