"Ewes with lamb at foot" refers to female sheep (ewes) that are currently nursing or accompanying their young lambs. This phrase is commonly used in farming and livestock contexts to indicate that the ewes are still caring for their offspring, which is important for both the health of the lambs and the management of the flock. The term highlights the maternal bond and the ewes' role in nurturing their young.
