Yesterday was March 31, the last day of the month, which meant that once again our monthly allotment of 30 Associated Press photos, for which we pay hard USD currency, was about to expire. As always, unused images don’t roll over to the next month. March may end mildly, according to tradition, but that’s a sacrifice we were not prepared to make. Please enjoy our offering of this gallery of LAMB images from the Associated Press.
