Frosty Mornings

 

 

We have new neighbours in the paddock across our gravel road. There is a third cow but she wasn't in the mood for a photograph today.

I really like to have cows in the neighbouring paddock.  Over time they become very friendly and come to the gate for a chat.

 

Most mornings at present are very cold and frosty.

 

The sheep are turning up for breakfast covered in frost.

 

Fibre Arts finished on Monday night.  I had a most enjoyable week.  Now I'm replenishing stock for the market and Etsy.  Today I'm listing on Etsy.

A Week Of Frosts

This morning was the start of a week of morning frosts. I fed the sheep last night so their wool had frosty tips the sheep seemed happy enough.

 



The grass was really crunchy underfoot.

 

 



 

I had difficulty opening the door on the duck shed as it had frozen.

The duck pond was a skating rink.

And I gave the dogs a warm breakfast.

 

And it will all happen again tomorrow.

 

Frosty Start to Winter

 The sheep were grazing early even though we had quite a frost.  The crunchy grass wasn't a problem.  Just after this photo the sheep walked through the creek.  The sheep have a set routine for grazing and you could almost set your watch.

Looking towards Mt Buninyong

Even the birds on Stella's coat were frosty.  Stella is very happy wearing her coat although some of the other sheep have been getting close up and personal trying to decide what this "animal" is.

Last night I was a little slow feeding Stella so she started chewing my apron as I tried to get the food over the fence. A very bossy lady.
