Just for you!
Close your eyes (if you like) and just listen (if you want to). These are the sounds in the barn yesterday in the middle of the morning. I left my phone on record and went off to hang out the washing. So there is no-one in the barn but you and the animals. I think you will be surprised at the cacophony.
Today is just for listening. During this recording you will hear your wee goats. The chickens, roosters. Earlier are the kunekune, later it is Poppy. A truck drives up and stops (Our John). You will even the sounds of Godot gently looking for his girls. And the birds. Always the birds.
A new frontier… thank you to Charlotte from Milan who suggested this.
I look forward to doing this again. It is a totally new experience for us isn’t it? Something for us to explore. We certainly have made a big leap across the divide. Do you like it? or would you rather that the sounds were only in your imagination.
Today Our John starts back at work. So now we UP the ANTE – as I will be taking over the plants as well. New eggs are in the incubator and today Jake and I get all the materials for him and his team to make the new chicken (and turkey) tractors. He has a plan.
Have a lovely day,
Your friend on the farm,

LOVED this! Oh, those chickens! I love the wee voices of the goats. Now, we must hear Boo and Ton.
This is wonderful! Love it! Brings back so many memories!
This is genius. Just when I thought I couldn’t love this blog more.
[…] The Kitchens Garden: Shh, just listen […]
Wow. They never stop! I don’t know if I could take that, to be honest. No wonder you love the sweet quiet nights!
Ah, those little goats! 🙂 I enjoyed listening to this…what a multitude of varied sounds!
I would love to hear the cats in on this!
This is so cool, it’s like I was in your barn with all the animals, hope you will do more.
Great idea, I loved all of the sounds – it was like an orchestra warming up, haha. It brought a tear to my eyes too, isn’t that amazing? When you say you have quiet guineas – are they really quiet? I’d love to get some (we have hens and two roosters) but I’m afraid my neighbors would complain! I love watching them walk around like little army helmets and they are such good “watch-dogs”!
People tell me how noisy theirs are but ours have never been watchdogs.. if Ton herds them they yell at him but mostly they just chase anyone driving a black vehicle, they love the reflection they get in a nice clean black car! c
