Farmyard Critters

My camera does some talking about life on our wonderful farm.  Our farm is alive with critters large and small!!

In our workshop all work on the mechanical saw came to a stand still when Mr and Mrs Cape Wagtail decided that this was the best place to set up home.  With all the rains that we have had in the area, I guess they decided that the noisy workshop was safer than out in the wet and cold






The chicks hatched, they fledged and now enjoy reducing the fly population in the nearby calf pens





























 The chicken run is a great source of enjoyment for me and Tessa my Border Collie, she takes pleasure in 'herding' chickens for me.

My sleepy cat Joe is 17 years old, Joe spends his days and nights sleeping, eating and gardening with me.

These hooves are made for walking


Why do we need to wait so long to get to those greener pastures across the road

So are you going to let us go after this photo
