Sunday Light.

Geraldine has forgiven me.  A little bit. But is still giving me a look as she breezes past.

Hugo got a wee fright when he was sitting in the garden and Geraldine flew up from behind and landed on his shoulder – he walked around for a while with her there before she flew off. It is quite cute when she is a small bird but when she is a big bird this will be interesting!

The turkeys and Geraldine stayed around their turkey house and did not get into trouble once. In the afternoon while they were sleeping I noticed Pania sleeping with them too.   Do you remember the turkey chick who could not sit up after he hatched, well he is still a bit wobbly and now I have noticed that his tail feathers have not grown straight. I think he is the only Tom too which is a bit of a worry.  Can you see? he is the third one back in that picture. His wings droop a bit too.  It is interesting how much of their balance and movement is governed by their feathers. Like rudders.  Or sails. He sits down a lot. But they are nice birds, friendly, un-bothered by much.

The light was low and cool yesterday.  It was Sunday so no-one was exerting themselves.  Our new girl came late last night and today we will all drive over to have a look at the little Llama. Then when we come home I will divide the piglets up so that the three Plonkers can move permanently into their Get Fat field and Molly and Tahiti can stay in the barn close to me and Sheila and Poppy and go on the slimmer diet.

I hope you have a lovely day.
