Bringing our Wildlife to you!
The 5th and 6 of May are the days when the Rooks fledglings leave their nest, I have never seen them fly on these dates, I have only seen them high up in the branches of the tree that their nests are in the Rookery. We have two Rookeries on the Farm and I must […]
Some of you may have seen that we tried to introduce our two riding Horses with Lady and her Foal. So that it did not become to over bearing for the Foal, we would introduce Breeze first, half an hour later we would try Arnie. It did not work, Breeze being Breeze decided she would […]
Woody has been walking about in the field most of the day. We keep going out to make sure she alright, when we cannot see her on camera. She has not laid sprawled out in the field at all today, or in her stable last night , the first time for a good few weeks. […]

By luck I found a Blackbird nest, How I had not seen it before, I really don’t know. It is very close to the Dove nest. In fact if the box had been pointing the other way It would have been closer to the camera than the Dove nest. The box the nest is in, […]
