Freya and Sweet Pea

Clowning around!!  Freya and Sweet Pea!!

Goats

Feeding time this morning :)

Milly, Molly and Mandy are enjoying the company of other goats down the road at Kerrie and Craig's place.  They are quite small, compared with the their goats.  Each has her own personality, Milly is more independent, Molly and Mandy stick together, and dont like Milly going off on her own!!

This is Mandy.



And this is Milly.



All three girls together, from the left, Milly, Molly, Mandy.



Molly about to help herself.




Goats like the food put out in a timely fashion, otherwise they are a bit inclined to get on with feeding themselves!!



A rescue goat, very friendly, and obviously on a very good wicket!!



My goats are quite small, and light framed, compared with the other Angoras.

Sweet Pea, Carter and puppy Minnie

Freya and I spent some time with Carter and Sweet Pea.  Carter is slowly getting used to the halter, but hasnt got his head around being lead yet - plenty of time!  He is almost 5 weeks old in these pics.  Sweet Pea enjoyed a cuddle and Carter was happy to be handled once the halter and lead rope were off.




Minnie wanted to be in on any cuddles that were going too, but wisely she waited until we had let the llamas go back to the their paddock.


Roses and autumn colour at Nowra Hill

The roses are looking beautiful, despite having been almost totally ignored.

Ian Thorpe (which has been flowering prolifically, and still has dozens of buds) and Warm Wishes.




Last few leaves left on the Liquid Amber.

Sunsets

There have been some rippers lately, and I keep missing photographing them because I am putting away ducks or feeding dogs.  This one was good, but missed the best!!

#5 so alive!!

#5 is growing up, now living in the growing out pen she is blossoming and blooming :)

Ducks today

Its turned quite cool here now, but the ducks are enjoying the water just the same!!


Honey Barbara and Frankie.


Long Tall Sally - she's an Ancona :)



Sylvie in the foreground.



This is little Leylani, such a cutie.




Sabine - keep trying to catch her to put a leg ring on to distinguish her from the other white ducks, no luck yet!!



This is Slim, he's an Ancona, and a bit stressy still!!  Hopefully he'll settle in soon.



Slim and Sally - nap time!!
