Wheels






Got out Saturday afternoon for a spin down to see the "neighborhood's" menagerie of Angus cattle, Mallard ducks, horses and the lone donkey. One of the many sunny early spring benefits of living out in the bush.

There is a small, family-run cattle farm at the end of the road; we hear them "moo-ing" in the summer every morning about 6am. Around the corner from the cows are the 3 horses and across the street is the slightly-flooded field filled with quacking ducks. Another 10 minutes down the road is another family farm complete with the donkey. Miki is quite into donkeys. The little coarse-haired burro always sidles up to the white fence when Miki vists so she can pat him. No pictures of it all yet, but they'll be along soon enough...

Took these photos while we were gearing up for our jaunt to see the animals.
