Rosie grazing on the hilltop.

The woods are almost leafy!
Always on alert.
Bella – dragging the black flies along with her!
Columbine are blooming on the hillside.
Spring flowers
Mountain climbing donkey.
When we first got the donkeys we thought we were going to have to make pathways so they wouldn’t fall off the rocky hillside. Ha!
The squirrel is not so fond of the new sandy paddock.
Bleeding hearts in bloom.

I have become a big fan of wind. Wind from any direction – even the east – which brings storms along with the breezes. Strong winds make the black flies disappear. Where ever the ‘other place’ is that they go must not like the wind as much as I do! Even the donkeys – with their flag in the wind ears – have much better days when they blow. I even keep the ‘wind line’ in our weather app showing now. The wind is as important … maybe even more so for now … than the sunshine!
