Well after a day that may be best forgotten, as the rain swept through, our new little foal had his first outing to the field this morning. Clinging closely to his mum as she clung even closer to the safety of the gateway. But the outing went well and to her releif, Diva went back to her bed by 2.0pm to snooze happily for the afternoon her new son tucked under her haynet in the corner, out of harms way.
Whilst I had the camera in my hand I went to the front field and took a few pictures of the mares above the village

Walking back to the house the Geraniums have survived the wet day quite well but the Agapanthus that has self seeded in the gravel is tantalizing yet to flower
The french lavender is still doing well in the pots that line the parterre wall
my favourite corner!

Diva's foal is such a little beauty - he's much darker than the others - but that might change I assume. Ednovean will soon be bursting at the seams ! Sue
ReplyDeleteSorry, meant to say that the garden is looking lovely - our Agapanthus only have one bud showing at the moment and the Red Hot Pokers flowers are non existent - caused by the long cold winter I assume - just hope they flower eventually. Sue
ReplyDeleteI think Ednovean is already bursting at the seems Sue!! Yes i think he'll go grey like his full sister Amie
ReplyDeleteOur Agapanthus are very slow this year so don't give up hope but our Red Hot Pokers are only a distant memory too. Let's hope for a better winter this year! christine
