Paddock Shuffle

Yesterday was a busy day, we moved some of the animals into the new paddock across the road.  It needs to have the access road fenced off, and some yards and then be divided up into smaller paddocks.... but for the moment, its one great big paddock with a LOT of grass in it.  It is great to be able to see llamas (and alpacas and sheep) in a big chunk of our property that until now we havent been able to use.



 BeetleBub, Red Riding Hood and Gracie in exploring mode.


We meet Mareebah while we were out checking for small gums that will need tree guards if they are to make it fully grown trees.



It didnt take them long to find the dam, and though a sunny day, it wasnt much past mild on the temperature scale, none-the-less some of them went in for a swim!!


Jemma is a big fan of a little swim:

The Weekend

I was supposed to spend the weekend driving to Narrabri and back, but a quick review of the weather forecast including the flood warnings meant that plans were postponed.  Instead I managed to fit in a visit to see Scarlett - who was in fine form :)
