From today the hens are able to roam once again - freedom! For us, we have egg hunts on a daily basis - anywhere seems more appealing than the designated nesting box!
The small egg is how the laying season sometimes begins.

With so much publicity being given to one of our guests favourite places, this had to be today’s image! This is Mynydd Illtud in Bannau Brycheiniog - Brecon Beacons - National Park - maybe recognised by many as being in the Brecon Beacons, but the original Welsh name for this beautiful locality will now become far more familiar to all.
