Wheat |
The light is soft, washed out and almost a little bit faded. I am enjoying this winter. Summers here seem so long that the winter is sometimes an all too brief respite from the heat, dust and flies.
Today when I was wandering around outside I spotted some sheep that had escaped. I looked at them and they looked right back.

Then they decided to be on their merry way before I did something rash, like tried to put them back in the correct paddock and prevent them feasting on the grass near the house.
Sheep On The Move |
Herbie The Wonder Puppy decided he would up the tempo a little.
Sheep Chasing Sausage Dog |
Lacking motivation on a lazy winter's afternoon I decided to let them graze on the hill for a bit longer. The Farmer can pop them back where they belong later.
I hope everyone else has had a lovely afternoon.

The wheat looks great, I had to laugh at the sausage dog :)
Your pictures and the descriptions that go with them always capture the peace of farm life perfectly.
Here in the northern hemisphere, in my first month of farm life, I can only dream about the fly/mosquito/hornet exodus to come in the winter months approaching...
Looking good out your way! I promise we are headed west...eventually! Herbie is the cutest x
Winter seems to be having her last little burst here. A different day and temperature every day this week. I do seem to recall that we have out worst wet/windy weather just before spring bursts forth.
Love that Herby the S-dizzle - does he really think he's a sheep dog? Lol?

Joolz - he definitely thinks he is a sheep dog. Not sure what the sheep think though.....
Lol that is so funny!
I had a mini foxy that chased the sheep on my parent's farm once, she had sheep going everywhere and looked like a little black and white magpie bouncing around in amongst them! She was hilarious to take spotlighting when we got after a fox, the yelping was deafening!
Have a great day!
