Goodbye, March!
Hullo, April.
(Only a day late). Here are some of my favourite farm photographs for March. A wee anthology of the month.
And a give-away. I am shortly sending off an order for some prints so I would like to do one for you too. So let’s have another give-away! For those of you who leave a comment on the blog today you will go into the draw for an enlarged signed print of any image you choose from this collection.
Just tell me which one is your favourite. And if your favourite is not even in this collection tell me that too! Here goes.
ONE: Two kittens.
TWO: Elsie running. (Keep in mind that her black face on the black body is hard to transfer without losing definition so it may not print well – but I still love the shot as part of the March collection!)
THREE: Snow on Barn
FOUR: Dogs and Tima.
FIVE : Peahens
SIX: Chick in foreground.
SEVEN: Man Walking.
EIGHT: The Farmy is Mist.
NINE: Cats playing tree.
TEN: Lady Astor at the gate.
ELEVEN: Poppy.
TWELVE: Godot.
THIRTEEN: Playing Goats.
FOURTEEN: Kitten in pot.
FIFTEEN: Four Kids
SIXTEEN: Pan. (Though this may not print so well.)
SEVENTEEN: Old Peghorn.
EIGHTEEN: Portland
NINETEEN: Lady Astor, Elsie and TonTon
TWENTY: Tima and Tane sleeping.
TWENTY-ONE: Midwest sky
TWENTY TWO: Three kittens.
TWENTY-THREE: Godot and train.
TWENTY-FOUR: Chooks and Sheep
TWENTY-FIVE: Hazel
Looking forward to your choices! Choose the image you love the most in your comment. Now I wonder who should do the draw this time. Any suggestions of who and how?
And yes, this works for international readers too.
(Poppy has a Big secret that she is not allowed to UN secret until we are quite, quite sure. )
I hope you all have a lovely day.
Your friend on the farm,

It’s a toss up between SEVENTEEN: Old Peghorn – love the colors. I’ve never seen such a colorful chicken before. And TWENTY-THREE: Godot and train. I’ve never seen an all white Peacock either :-). Beautiful pictures all the way around.
That is a hard choice to make. I couldn’t decide. Evie decided that she likes the kittens peeking out of the barn best.
My favorite? #15. Gotta love the kids!
How can anyone choose just one picture??? I love them all, but the one that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy is #25, Hazel!
Oh this is SO much fun!! No. 7, Man Walking!! I love them all, but that would be my pick for a print. Fingers, toes and bristles crossed. Thank you so much of thinking of this.
All wonderful pictures, but I like #4 Dogs and Tima the best 🙂
Oooh. It’s number seven: Man Walking. I love all the farm photos but Man Walking feels like a metaphor for my life right now…
Oh my! Once again you have given us the impossible task Celi! lol We have to choose just one favorite? When so many call out to us to “pick me” for various reasons. #23 Godot and train is my final choice. And I’ve scrolled through all of them many times and this was a very hard decision. Even if I don’t win, want you to know how much I enjoyed all the beauty this morning. Thank you.
Here’s a guarded, but very happy YAY for Poppy with fingers and toes crossed in luck. You must know that it is almost impossible to choose just one photo Miss C…and as much as I love each and every animal photo, the one that struck me today, as well as the first time published, is the Snow on Barn shot. Having said that what do you think about a lovely book of photos for the next major printing- either alongside or in addition to the annual calendar? I have a feeling that they would sell out quite quickly and I am reserving one now just in case this idea comes to fruition 🙂
I’m looking forward to hearing Poppy’s secret 😉
Oh you make it hard to choose!!! I love the “Farmy is Mist”. I can just imagine the peacefulness of that time! But I have to say it was really hard because of the Poppy photo. The back lighting is so cool!! 🙂
I’ve gone through the pictures multiple times and am going with #8 “Farmy is Mist”. Of blog pictures not in this list is the one with Boo Nanny and Marmalade as a kitten. I think Tane should do the pick as you said in your talk that Tima is mean to him and he might want to do something special. How he would do this — no idea. Have a great day C
Farmy in Mist will help me to say goodbye, winter, but also to remember its beauties that you recorded for us and the pleasures of visiting with animal-friends each day.
Oh my!! Just one!? They are all great…. I’m going with # 17 Old Peghorn. I love the colors. Thanks for doing this. And a secret congrats to a certain young lady… hopefully.
17 Old Peghorn!!! But it was hard to choose….. I love Poppy’s photo, the kitties always tug on my heartstrings…… The sheep and chooks….. The goats, the cows, the pigs, the dogs, Gadot….. OH my LIONS, TIGERS and BEARS, Oh My!
Happy Thursday!!!!
Small weather report from Texas – yesterday evening we had soft ball size hail in the area. Sadly a dear friend’s house was severely damaged and she had to come stay with us. There are holes in her roof the size of Tima. We have another slight chance of more storms and hail this afternoon, so if you could say a small prayer for all of us, we would appreciate it.
And – just 20 miles to the east – a 7.2 earthquake hit at 545 this morning. Spring has ‘officially’ hit with a bang litterally.
I’m so sorry, Pat. Texas weather can be so severe. I’m glad your friend had you to help her. We did not even get a drop of rain in San Antonio. Earthquakes in that part of Texas are becoming so common and scary. Take good care.
Sending tons of farmy love in a benovelent gentle cloud, watch out for it.. it is the one trailing a bright blue ribbon.. c
Sending positive thoughts and hugs – hope the wind blows all nastiness away and blue skies and sunshine are in your future!!
