A very very busy time for me and therefore not much time to write for this blog but here a quick summary for my own reference later:
Hoof care:
The postponed trimming of hooves has now taken place on Wednesday 12th February 2014.
First sunny day - the calm after the storms:
Blessed with a beautiful sunny Sunday I went with my camera to take photographs of moss growing on stones.
'Mr F' is still recovering from his mud-fever and had a relapse 2 days ago: he got himself a bit in a state while 'Lillian' was dealing with his stable mate 'Jess' and took her out for a walk. 'Mr F' wasn't at all happy being left behind alone and was charging around in the deep mud like a loon, aggravating the already sensitive skin.
I did not get far with my photographs as 'Mr F' wanted to spend time together in the sun and so we did, wandering around the field examining the fence and stone walls and just generally enjoying each other's company:
'Hello, what are you up to?' - Although he is clearly not comfortable.
But he still follows me around which is good. If he didn't I would know things are bad.
The mud ... be gone!
Not at all comfortable.
Leaving 'Mr F' to it, sunbathing ...
Here is hoping for more dry weather, this mud is not helping at all.
