Hi Chris, I wanted to introduce you to the neighbourly animals that are always part of the village. I am lucky to live in a Cul-de-Sac and at the end of our road is a farm gate where I have always wanted to wander. Behind this gate is a happy place where a handful of farm animals live and frolic. Today was my day to introduce myself to them all! I saw my neighbour herding his sheep back to the farmyard after their day of grazing in the nearby fields. He invited me to visit the animals. There was a Spurwing Goose – this is a rare find because they are wild birds. This one has become tame and walks right up to you. A bunny and chickens and the lonely horse and the flock of sheep!

If that’s a wild bunny, they sure are fluffier there than here!
Well I don’t know about Chris, but I’m having difficulty picturing cul-de-sac and farm animals in the same sentence never mind the same place. How waaay different than here.
I really wish we had sheep like in your photo. I love seeing them in English images too. Horses are my fave though.
I love farm animals. When I am in Europe, it always makes me smile when the cows or the sheep need to cross the road in front of the cars. Thanks for sharing…
A Spurwing Goose, very unusual, almost primitive in appearance.
Blotanical is really messy these days. It says that your title in the Picks window ‘Raising Butterflies’, then when i opened it is ‘Neighborly Animals’! At least i am not the only one with mixed titles and contents, haha. I am amused at the ‘lonely horse’
