Default A Day At The Farm...

One of the day trips for the Grandies over the holidays was a trip to a friend's farm where they experienced the wonders of nature first hand. We explored rock formations, streams, observed the birds and generally had a wonderful day.They climbed to the highest hill on the property and gained a panoramic view of the surrounding valleys, then merrily tumbled their way back down, gaining great speed on the way. I will share more shots in a day or so.

Fantastic shots Pauline. The first is my fave and I like the perspective of the third one.

Pauline, What lovely photos. It must have been grand to be with the grandies. I'm partial to the new lamb shot because it is more than a lamb's first meal. It shouts Spring! New Life! One question. Can you get close to a cow and not say "Moo"? I've tried but I can't see to help myself.

Thankyou Angela. It was a great day, with all the little newby's around, and the pastures looking so beautifully green...lovely time of year.

Yes they are the wonders of nature, excellent set Pauline

Excellent set Pauline. Love your #3, is there anything more precious than a little lamb?
