A wildlife camera can be great entertainment for kids. Giving them an understanding so they will respect it

Need to get a few more straps but it looks like it's working to plan. Fitting anchors to the out door pit yesterday.

A little bit of liquid fertiliser falling from the sky this morning to hopefully keep grass growing ahead of demand for the cows๐Ÿ‘Œ

Taking in the old meadows today for silage. Nice increase in wild flowers this year on it. Here we have white clover and birdfoot Trafford. Will make perfect food for the dry cows over winter and during calving

We had a little win recently, managed to add another bit to the family farm. This is the moment we took the kids over to explore the new ground. Lots of work ahead but with a bit luck it will be a great addition.

Spotted a Bumblebee nest this morning. Unfortunately a badger has also found it. Will keep an eye on it over the next few weeks

Cows are so full they don't want to move this morning, so I turned off the feeder #grasstomilk

As we plan how to get the most out of this new land (fencing, water system, roadways, gates and handling facilities) we are starting to ask can we improve biodiversity also. The land has to pay its way to keep people on it

The reason behind me asking was because some people looking in say we do harm but I see more wildlife on farms each year. The other reason is we have been fortunate to increase our farm this year 1/2.

The ground works were completed today. Next is to fit the pipe bends to get water to build up and then plant the reeds. The boys are busy exploring and coming home covered in mud
