Some sky shots

Archive photos taken over the last year or so.

 An angel?

Definitely a horizon.

Tree silhouette.

Same tree, different perspective.

New Zealand swamp harrier.

A super moon.

Through the track (part two)

As promised I have finally taken another walk 
through the track and taken photo's on the other side. 

Apart from this one. 

I couldn't resist. Cows have such beautiful eyes.

 I'm not sure that they were 'girl' cows though, 

I think they may have been juvenile boys, so I didn't tarry long.

Juvenile boys of any kind can be a bit unpredictable.

They were in the paddock where previously

the horse had been looking over the electric fence.

This side of the track is more cultivated than the other side.

I was going to say more civilised 

but thought that would be rather rude of me, haha.

But you'll see what I mean.

Horses relaxing in the spring sunshine.

The pine trees at the back are 

actually quite a distance away, 

across a road well behind the front houses.

Sheep in a paddock at back 

with deer fencing in the front. 

The deer fences are two metres high, 

to stop the deer escaping. 

No deer there today though.

A sheep, alpaca and horse 

at the racecourse end of the track. 

I thought they were all sharing the same 

paddock but no, the horse is further back.

A fairly traditional farm house,

when it was built it would have been regarded

 as rather a flash place - right up to date.

These days it may have the farm labourer 

and his family living in it,

or the original farmer with his wife,

 while the son will have built himself a new 'flash' place

just down the road a bit where Dad could keep an eye on him.

The entrance and driveway to a 'new flash' house.

If you look really hard you can just see the corner of 

the house behind the trees near the left side of the picture.

And back to the start,

from whence we came.

I hope you've enjoyed taking another stroll 

through the track with me in the spring sunshine.

It was lovely and warm with no breeze

and a hawk (aka: swamp harrier) circling overhead.

Until next time,

take care,

Diana
