Mutton

A good Irish stew is made with mutton. And Mitey is an expert at cooking one. Since giving up full-time fishing some years back, he has become a sheep farmer. The sheep in these parts graze on the steep hillsides all the way down to the fields that border the sea. Three of Mitey's herd have died in the last six weeks for unknown reasons. We walked out in the field a few days ago to inspect the latest causalty.
