Default Green, green and more green

I thought I would share with my friends at DPS a piece of the countryside where I live.

This is the view from the hill behind where I live.

A country view

My house is the white one on the right

Where I live

"Why is she pointing that thing at us?"
"What thing? All I can see is your ear."

Cows

Mum and her two babies. The black one was born just minutes before and the brown and white one is a bit older.

Mum and two babies

Thanks for looking.

Fantastic Angela - the rich pastures of the Waikato in New Zealand.

Love that first shot leading you down the road - all are very good.

Cheers, Bernz

Angela, you live in a really beautiful place. The country is so big and open. I love the picture of the road going down the hill.
