Mid-December?

Barely a week from winter solstice, and the animals are relishing the re-emergent grass.  Hazel thinks that climate change is perhaps not such a bad thing, but she lives solely in the moment.

Snowline

  As the snowline continues its inevitable descent down the mountains, the animals are still enjoying some green grass.

Late Summer

  The garden and all us critters finally had a welcome drench of rain, after an extremely dry summer.  Most crops did well despite the drought, with the exception of the celery and corn.

New calf, more lambs

2 day old JerseyX bull calf to Hazel, any suggestion on names?   (I know, you shouldn’t name the boys on the farm…)

April Showers

Passing April showers are greening things up and getting the garden growing, and leaving behind some beautiful evening light.

Farm Animals

The animals are enjoying these first snow and ice free days, not-so-patiently waiting for the world to green up.

faerie circle

I’ve long suspected this place is a little bit enchanted.  The largest Giant Puffball mushroom so far weighed 30lbs.

Evening Rounds

Just back in from doing the end-of-day rounds, on a lovely late-spring evening.

All is light

The light is particularly striking at this time of year, as the sun spends a lot of time low to the horizon and the world returns to colour.

Signs of Spring

An empty hayloft is a sure sign of spring; another good sign is… … lambs!
