Mackerel

Named after the sky, her tummy has the same markings, likes to hunt mice and roams around and about the paddocks and the edge of the compost heap. A few bags of rubble dropped off on the driveway, it’s been widened a little and will now be edged with lumps of oak and surplus fencing posts. Donkeys and sheep spent the day in the paddocks; collected four bales of straw, the grass should be sufficient for the sheep if the weather stays warm so didn’t get any hay. The Robin is still sitting on the nest, no eggs yet. Blackthorn blossom nearly out. A cloudy warm day with light winds.
