Spring?

Officially, Spring is du any moment (20th March apparently - the Spring equinox) and it is starting to feel a bit like Spring (although it is cold and more snow wouldn't surprise me).
There is blossom on the mirabelle trees (small plums). You can see at right of the photo.


There are baby bunnies, and we have just put some eggs on to incubate (we would have done it sooner, but it has been so wet and muddy all the eggs have been dirty which isn't good for hatching as they tend to get infections). These aren't 100% mud free, but better.

The grass is growing a tiny bit, you can see it looks a bit green round the cows.



Bif is pretty, but stupid. You can see the burning of his horns to stop them growing didn't work very well! The castrating did though so hopefully they won't be a problem to us in his fairly short life.

There are no lambs yet which is a bit surprising.
