What a day!

 From the school run at 8am..

A lunch break beyond Haunn... the Mountain Everlasting...

rocks at low tide...

the islands in the midday sun...

An Early Purple Orchid...

Cliff edge bluebells, sea pinks...

Fresh water from a burn running into the rock pools..

Extreme planting...

Coco dwarfed by the Giant's armchair..

After the sun set...

And the moon rose...

It has been a magical May day.  I am aware that the farming content of the blog has been overtaken with an awful lot of photo-posts and I do sort of apologise!

Farming news soon!

To the cave.

Farmer is itching to move the cows into the in-bye fields off the hill, as we are running out of hay and they are usually on the fields again by mid May, but there is not enough grass yet.  And there are lovely Early Marsh Orchids in the beyond Haunn field where he wants to put them.... we went to look at the Mountain Everlastings again and decided, as the tide was right to re-visit a cave we have only been to by boat.  There is a story there, which I will add later.
