Ongoing winter storms

The weather is again the hot topic, well… cold topic really. It has been back to back storms the last week now. Plenty of hail storms and snow. But also intermittent blue skies.
The wind has been the consistent element. Strong!


We had brilliant views of a pair of golden eagles from the yard while bedding out the calves on Monday.



The male bird is the one of the left - Smaller than the female.


We put new bedding out for the calves every couple of days. The bales of bedding are incredibly good quality this year thanks to a very dry cutting period back in September. It’s more like hay really. Great system so we don’t have to buy in any bales. All Oronsay cut.



Glad to have the fire going tonight!
