Dorset lifestyle
He’s been around for a while and appeared on the terrace steps late morning, fortunately Smudge didn’t see him and he ran off into the bushes. I decided to re-home him at the bottom of the meadow strip but he didn’t seem interested in diving into an existing mole hole, they often lead a solitary life, only coming together to breed. The ground was softer there so maybe he’ll build his own network of tunnels and head off in a different direction. A cool start to a warm, sunny, day
With William looking a bit dozy Toby was lying flat out, donkeys don’t relax like this very often but with the temperature rising in the mornings they’re going out onto their straw before eating their breakfast in the shade. A small mole was running round the terrace wall at lunchtime, probably a youngster driven from his birthplace by his mother, so he’s out and about looking for new territory to conquer, hope he doesn’t start tunneling under the lawn. A warm sunny day with cooling rain for an hour or two.
