There is always one escapee.
No need to go the gym when you make your living from farming.
Moving our 🐑 onto another field and also giving them a health check with their feet.
Our fields are still very wet and so not so good for sheep.
The field we are taking them to is much drier.
Strange weather.
-6 recently snow 🌨 and ❄ and today is 11 degrees.
Maneskin is very happy 😊 now that she can have a good run on the field's but unfortunately she comes back muddy.
We have two lovely dog friendly cottages, Oakpond is on our farm and Oakwood is one mile away in the village.
It is snowing here this morning and the geese are back visiting us again.
Our first Xmas 🎄 calf from a very late calving cow 🐮.
We usually calve in April and so this little one is special.
Only 6 hours old and already walking around .
Mo and Manaskin enjoying the snow 🌨 today .
Mo and Maneskin thinks this is fun.
We now have a stream running across our lane from the water coming off the fields and back onto the paddock.
It's back to square one again with all this ☔
Just as the land was drying up, now a wet sodden mess again.
The cattle are starting to tread the fields now and it is too warm to bring them in as the calves may get pneumonia and so we are now letting Oliver group come into the yard for ad-lib feed during the day and freddy Flintoffs group will feed at night.
There are still fields and fields of maze which hasn't been got in yet and it is starting to turn yellow.
Goodness knows when the wheat 🌾 will be planted as this is going to make straw prices very expensive.
Just had this balloon fly over our farm very very low with its burners on.
Cattle and dogs are petrified.
All systems go again after the delay yesterday.
This is the last of this year's silage coming home for the winter.
The days are now very short with heavy dews in the mornings and so any other baling has to be done in the afternoons when it has a chance to dry.
This is a very busy time of year on the fsrm as baling and hedgecutting work all come at once.
Our young cattle having high jinx tonight whilst checking them.
