Wow, what a beautiful weather week we have had in our part of the world!  In just the last couple of days a tinge of green can be seen and the frogs have started singing.

Here on the farm the temporary pond that was caused by an ice clogged culvert grew and then dispersed - it was fun to see some duck visitors on it so close to the barn.  These two pictures are from Saturday morning and then Sunday morning.

 The ducks left of course but you can see the deer on the hillside.  The deer are just thick around here lately.

The kids are growing fast.

The turkey hens are still laying eggs daily but not setting yet.  

The egg above is from the nest high up on the hay stack in the shed.

We attended a farm auction today, something we don't have a lot of time for.  This one was just down the road and we both came home with something we wanted - I bought an old corn sheller and Kevin got this stock trailer. 

It might look a little rough but it's solid enough to haul pigs around and will be very useful.

That's all I have time for this week.  See you next time, be well friends.
