Well as it was Easter Sunday and a glorious day the family came round to exchange Easter eggs and look at the new arrivals. Although the two baby Saddleback pigs were the stars of the show Anastasia's Easter chicks were a close second so it gave me an opportunity to get a couple more shots. It was also a momentous ocassion for Isabella our little Granddaughter who took her first steps yesterday.
Isabella meets the chicks.
Then we all sat down for lunch on the terrace and Miles and I tried out my first (in a long time) excursion into brewing, Woodfordes Nelson's Revenge. After lunch I was going to let Anastasia take the chicks a little further a field as they had been confined in the house and attached run up to now but .............. what're those birds circling overhead!
Three Red Kites!
They are all in this much magnified shot the two not so clear are top left and bottom right.
Well that's put an end to thoughts of allowing the chicks out today. Maybe tomorrow.
