A couple of shots of hay around the farm (they're busy doing the second cut of the year today), some of the farm cats and new kittens and finally I caught 91 yr-old Remo passing the gate on his way home after his daily constitutional - he is now in his summer gear! :hothothot

Lovely barn kitties :)

Yesterdays Pics...the ones I taunted you with yesterday :D
And if some of these don't melt your heart...then it is because you haven't got one!
pictures 1-6 are the foals in the field near Hyndburn Bridge. OK, so they aren't donkeys, but lovely just the same.
(I will get donkeys some time soon)
7) Purple barge on the canal
8) Hyndburn Bridge.....it was nice to get in the shade for a few minutes. I was sweating cobs after my walk down there.
9) another view of the bridge - from the other side.
10) yellow vetch with a carefully concealed bee(you can see the tip of its wing at the right of the flower).

That was my Yesterday walk.

Hi Nicola! Nice to see you here :)

Just one photo for today: took a little drive and picked some more strawberries from Andrews Scenic acres. There was a school bus with 40 kids there about to go out into the fields and pick some berries. Now that would have given some good photo ops! But sadly, no time today to linger. I also got some freshly picked asparagus and a strawberry rhubarb pie, still warm from the oven, already sampled as you can see.

Today in Pictures, a short safari behind the pals centre.

1. The area to the rear is flora and fauna rich.
2. Brambles turning pink with age from white.
3. The Nettles are covered in the caterpillar of the Small Tortoiseshell Butterfly.
4. Himalayan Balsam starting to dominate with its coverage and height.
5. Clover covering areas close to the ground.
6. Six Spot Burnet Moth on thistles, the area is alive with them.
7. Almost a clover meadow.
8. What I think is a hoverfly on Bramble flower.
9. I think this has just emerged, the Ruby Tiger Moth.
10. Himalayan Balsam again, this time looking to take over Platts Lodge.
