A lovely crisp and frosty start to the day after a week of rain, all the animals were out and about and the donkeys‘ coats felt really warm. The paddocks are still very wet but will start to dry out if it stays dry for a week or two. The temperature started to drop at this time in January last year, with snow later in the month, so it’ll be interesting to see if the weather follows the same pattern this year. Bright and sunny all day with light winds.
