Cottage Diaries. May 2008

Welcome to the May diary.   We have got my old Landrover in for its test next week, so hopefully we will be getting back to normal soon. Whisty the lamb continues to thrive and is now grazing with her mum and aunts.  The hens are laying well and I sold some eggs to a dog walker the other day.  Wendy is now doing very well after her operation and is back to her normal bad tempered self. The horses are thriving, Tiny gets more weight on by the day and is looking fitter than ever.

The wildlife in the fields are all doing well, The robin has hatched three young off in the tack room. The wren has young at the other field and the swallows are nesting in the cow shed.  All seem to be happy and healthy.

I am working at Bransby over the bank holiday so I will get to see the horses, Maddie is now very poorly so it will be a big hug for her.  Leroy the donkey is as friendly as ever and Chutney has made a new friend, Jude, a pretty little mare who is a bit smaller than Tiny.

Not a lot more to say, get out and enjoy the spring and look out for the flowers bursting and the birds nesting.
