Spring secrets

$Rain acomin\'$

Golden morning

Looking peachy

Dawnbow

$What\'s not to like about dandelions?$

Llamas everywhere you look!

The bigger stable is very popular

At sunrise

At sunset

Neighbours

They still all look the same to me . . . . .

Me and my dogs

$Village over «plan d\'eau»$

Rain! At last!!!

Min and Blue have the occasional sisterly love-in

$It\'s evening, and the barn cats occupy the yard$

Stubbs races back from an illicit car chase

Little Ronnie is growing fast

The house cats like nothing better than a new cardboard box

Valentine looking just a bit smug at the lushness of their new surroundings

Just follow me, son . . . .

Stubbs enjoys his new sport of run and catch

$The one and only Big Cat - she\'s not big in size, but is in personality!$

Min enjoys a sunny spring day

Quite some tongue!

The multi-coloured kitten often sits on the window sill - but has never come into the house

Too cold for grazing

Hoar frost makes spiky decoration

Ana and Pedro enjoying their new field shelter, now with integrated hayrack.

Peaceful llama winter. Shame about the molehills!

Ana really is a good looking llama

Blue confronts the newest house cat

Stubbs explores every patch of water he comes upon

Rufus at his happiest, carrying a stick

Blue tits are the most insistent customers at the sunflower seed bar

Seeds get eaten at a high rate in this weather

Duc and Valentine demonstrate scary white-eye

Where did he throw those carrots?

Rufus and Stubbs just love the snow!

Ana and Pedro - happy together in the snow

Hay - both food and, later, bed

Young neighbours 1 - five barn kittens

Young neighbours 2 - three calves

Red sky in the morning!

4 out of 5 kittens say this is their favourite bed

And they are out!

Wide open - and edible for those who dare

The door-side mullein is still a splendid weed

Lilas has rolled on the bare earth, creating a dust cloud

Barn cat Tom is growing, in size and in confidence

Fogarty, demanding food as always

One of the splendid mushrooms is opening

Early morning view over the mown hayfield

The farmer rushes to bale hay before the rain

The wave of the storm flows towards the llamas

Rufus (left) and Stubbs relax in the shade

Go!

Ready, steady . . .

One of the barn kittens

Atmospheric early morning oaks

Rufus in his play area

$It\'s that hayfield sky again!$

Caterpillar!

Bumper cherry crop

Another lovely sunrise (but I still wish the dogs would sleep later)

They made hay while the sun shone

The house and barn at sunrise

Dogs run wild in the hayfield at sunrise

Handsome summer llama

Happy summer pigs

Lonely imitates a pudding in her broodiness

One of the new kittens explores bravely

Ant in the valerian

Min patrols the yard

Brown at rest

Min relaxes in yet another strange position

$It\'s a shame Lenny\'s such a loony - he is a fine beast!$ $The potatoes are flowering - soon we\'ll be eating them$

Another beautiful sunrise over the hay meadow

Ooh look! The cats have left a nice mouse for us to eat!

Min is very relaxed in the house!

Big Cat enjoys being carried

Neighbour with new baby

Rufus (right) and Stubbs on an early morning walk

Lenny is forever on guard

Lilac outside front door

Willow field, with external verge and buttercups mown

The vegetable area is growing

Are you looking at me?

Looks like peaches will be plentiful later in the summer

Spring flowers cheer the garden

Yoda enjoys some fresh vegetation

Pigs revelling in the new pen

Minimum demands entry

Big Cat

Ponds are full from the winter rain

Down in the valley, the stream still flows and the spring grass grows

Runner chicken making the most of the spring weather

Llamas grazing happily on the fresh grass

Eddies of wind around outbuildings leave deep drifts of snow

Pig sty begins to disappear as the snow drifts

Llamas appreciating the possibility of indoor accommodation

The sun sets on another lovely Allier day

Sometimes it seems as though every tree has at least one cat in it

Min is particularly keen on getting to the end of small branches

$Blue takes advantage of her brother\'s willingness to be a bed!$

The new llama garden allows access from the field to the barn

Neighbouring fields are all empty, and the cows are indoors

The streams are full at this time of year

Our stream has flowed throughout the freeze

$Red sky in the morning, llama farmer\'s warning$

Willow field and stream

Mini-mum in the snow

Ana kisses Val!

Ana and Lilas greet Val in the snow

Sticking together for warmth

Not much coming down our road today

Oaks in the big field

Siamese puppies

The inscrutable Blue

Early morning llamas

$The sun rises over a neighbour\'s field$ $Valentine\'s coat is in its winter mode - long as ever, and blown all over the place.$

Expectant llamas greet Val with enthusiasm

Chickens like pig food remains

Removing another load of branches

$Dawn over the fields, and it\'s time to feed the animals$

The landscape is black and white

Puppies are puzzled by the snow
