Whilst i was feeding the sheep someone slyly slunk by for a drink out the water tub. Sorry first ones a bit dark, into direct sunlight.
One lamb decided to challenge the fox.

Wow what a bold fox! Or is that not unusual for where you are? At our old house they were shy and I only had them kindly marking their scent and territory (when I left tack room open at dusk!). Never actually saw one.
There as bold as brass round here. Thats why i try to lamb indoors and i shut them in at night for the first few weeks once born.
A few years ago the fox came ever night when i went to feed the sheep and be in with the sheep eating out the feed troughs next to them.

I had an Eeeek moment today.
I was sitting all quiet feeding the fishes, when I had a bird fly past my face. Well that broke the absorbed place I had gone to!
I noticed two Robins. I didn't know who had done it since they were either side of me. One flew past again but decided to land right on the edge of the lake. No no you can't stay there, the carp in here will have you. So there I was fishing bread out of the lake so I can feed the robins who wanted it.
So that could be wild bird seed on my shopping list.

I love this photo. I don't know if mine will be overly thrilled by the location of the beach in relation to her field. I could get photos like this, I went to the beach, on my own.
Everything is so much cleaner and clearer since lockdown. There's a lot of ships usually, as this is the solent, but it's so clean and quiet just now.I love this photo.

2 year old left some "eggs" for the horses. 
Took this the other day. Just remembered.
I maybe moving on from fishes to flyers.

Today we went on a 21.5m bike ride, ( with our electric bikes, I'm not that fit). It was lovely to be reminded of the wide world beyond the 5 mile radius we can travel in Wales. Cycling is not restricted. We went on what I called the 3 Castles ride although I failed to take a photo of the middle one on the route. Setting off from our Pembroke house we tootled past, in order of the pics, Carew Castle, then across to Cresswell Quay. Very odd to sit by a river in a wooded valley and see the sea and have the banks strewn with seaweed! Then up and over to close to Manorbier Castle, the un-photoed one, sitting on a glorious little bay on the Pembrokeshire Coast path. Then a final toil along the final stretch and around the pond at Pembroke Castle, about 1/4 mile from home. Splendid.
The beach on the solent - whole family met up for the first time in 11 weeks. The water has never been so blue!
it was FREEZING!

Lovely walk on one of the greens in the forest. Two flaked out foals, and the black pony on the left was a stallion - as a family found to their cost when they got too close to his harem!
It's a giant tanker, we get them coming past here. On first glance they resemble a cruise liner but they aren't. Least ours aren't. I don't think that one is either.
