The sheep have been moved into willow, and the donkeys have moved into the square paddock, they’ll be confined to a small area bordered by an electric fence, and graze the paddock in strips. William loves grass and is looking tubby, must be the result of eating the apple twigs and the hay discarded by the sheep. It’s difficult to maintain the balance between too much grass and an area big enough for them to get enough exercise. A sunny day with a brisk wind, warm when sheltered from the wind; in a calmer moment a partridge walked along the top of the hedge towards the house. Added weights to the tarpaulin on top of the woodpile.
