Quince Blossom

Yesterday avian flu restrictions were lifted. They had been in place since November. Chooks up and down the land are celebrating their liberation.

She arrived in the post – I kid you not

Jeremy will introduce her into the second hive this afternoon. He hopes that the resident bees will accept her Click below

Plenty especially as it will be cooked for the monthly village community lunch. Enjoy!

Ponyo and PJ have done brilliantly and it’s time to start the weaning process. I cut out their evening feed but gave them milk this morning

The younger of the two goslings drowned in half an inch of water – possibly when I was holding the lamb during his procedure snd hadn’t been out to check on them for a while

So now there is one precious gosling with Mother Silkie. As the vets left a new acquaintance called in to ask about geese. We hadn’t met before but I’m sure we will all meet again. she was very taken with the friendly, pregnant goats
