Our Farm Walk, 2 months later; photo heavy

[Freedom]

This is where the Canadian geese hang out.


Tasha loves to burst out of the woods and race along the open grass, flushing any geese there may be (there were not any the day I took the camera).


Reed grasses have also appeared since March.


I’ve never seen these yellow flowers before. There are many on a branch, they aren’t petals but more like oblong balls! Very tiny.


Since this is where the geese hang out, they poop their green “tootsie rolls” all over the area. This is what is looks like after it is smushed:


By Tasha! (the photos of her I took on the walk, I still had the zoom on, you couldn’t see a thing, just blurs. So I had to take her photos again at home before her bath.)


It is necessary to get some under your ears.


She missed one side, and wants to return. NO!


Going to return to the car soon . . . .

We cut back to the field to return to the car. Marlin knows the way now!


Back into the wall of grasses.


Sugar: “Which way, Mum?”


There is a main path on the right. We took that regularly for over a month. Then one day I took the less used left path. Marlin is very rigid in his routines; HE went on the right hand path! I kept calling to him and eventually he came bounding THROUGH THE GRASSES! He he heee. I pulled that a second time a few days later. Marlin just kept on going on HIS path, and met us up at the car.

Marlin knows the way and strides out:


Sugar goes ahead as well.

I just get such a kick out of watching fluffs “bounce” as they walk!

Off they go, around the final turn and to the car.


Thank you for joining us yet again on our walkies!

Wow, everything got so green! I just love summer time. Everything is so much more prettier. It really looks like a lot of fun! What an awesome walking place.

[Freedom]

Thanks, Monica! We are enjoying it.

Funny thing. We see other folk and thir dogs are running here, sniin there, dashin through the grass. My crew stay fairly close to . . . ME! Everyone we meet there comments on it, he hee. They are surprised, as they get closer, to see I have all off leash.

What a nice place to walk your dogs!

[Freedom]

Yes, it really is. I can't believe it took me THREE YEARS to find this, and it is less than 3 miles from home, he hee.

The "little yellow flowers" in the first picture you labeled as such are cinq foil - "five petal" in French. The purple flowers are vetch, which is poisonous to cows. What an adventure for the fluffs!
