There are five new photographs on the Photo page, starting from number 0ne.

We got up at 5.30am on holiday in Pembrokeshire last September and got some fantastic shots of the sunrise over the cliffs.

Hello Mr. Farmer, A pair of Alpacas looking almost like Dr. Doolittle’s Push Me Pull You! at the Bath and West Show 2006, Julia.

I thought that after seeing Lynne and Davids pet Squirrel, there must be a story. They have kindly said that they would tell us about it. As soon as I receive it I will put it on the Diary Page.

I put the Dove nest webcam on for a change this morning. It doesn’t take long to find a Dove nest with the amount of Doves that we have on the Farm. The nest is in the stable that Breeze is normally stabled in until we move her over to Lady’s Block. Doves tend to use the same nests time after time. I have shown the nest that was on this morning a number of times before. Seeing a Blackbird this morning made me put the Dove nest on. I had seen for couple of days a Blackbird going in and out of the stable block, as if it was taking food to a nest. I don’t think that I am wrong, but I was unable to find the nest. If I get time I will look again tomorrow.

We are moving Breeze back to her usual stable tomorrow, as we are going to start to make the stable that she is in a lot bigger for the Broodmares, once that they have Foaled. We think that Emmi could do with an older Horse as company as well as Gypsy. We don’t think that Emmi has been very happy since she arrived here. She is not eating her feed as she should be. We are hoping that moving Breeze close to her will buck her up. When we turn Emmi out into the field with Arnie, she seems a lot more relaxed. It would be better if we could put Emmi out with all of the Horses, but for sure if we did there would be a kicking session, Emmi would be the loser.

There is a good chance that we are stopping Willow nursing from Lady. After the Vaseline and Cayenne Pepper concoction not working, we have tried another recipe, that seems to be working. As I am writing the Diary, I have been watching Willow attempt to take a feed off of Lady, but she gave up very quickly. With a bit of luck we may have stopped her. I will now leave Willow with Lady for a while longer, without Willow getting milk from Lady she will be a lot easier to wean.

I don’t know what has happened to the Ewe who is due to Lamb. Her udder looks as it will burst. I will check her over tomorrow. There is nothing to worry about. She is an older Ewe, so her udder will be quite large through previous Lambing.
