Saturday 11th November

Not officially my day but as I was only across the road checking on the cows, thought it would be mean not to pop in and say hello. The ponies were close to main eastern entrance, a little spread out, but merged back together once I arrived. Despite the hideous weather, their coats (particularly Doune and Kat) are looking really lush and soft, just in time for the colder days and nights I guess. But they were looking brilliant, inquisitive and relaxed. 

It's also great to see the lake filled up (more than last year), so thanks to Southern Water for that. Fingers crossed it attracts loads of migratory bird traffic, although at the moment it's being hogged by the famous migratory seagull. Although to be fair there were a couple of ducks on there too, so hopefully more will come. 

On the way home I seemed to have accidently picked up a passenger in the form of a tiny spider, which was having a fine old time running about my bald pate and into my ear. Quite tricky maintaining concentration on the motorway with such shenanigans going on! 😁
