Our first walk in a week!

 Good afternoon dear Blogger friends. After the heavy rains in the first two weeks of February, it was impossible for me to walk along the farm roads. Skabby would have been fine but he needs me with him. 

Great excitement at 7am today: We went out for our first walk since last Saturday. 

Skabby elated that we're on the road again! 

We passed two little boys who had brought "skaftin" : lunchbox for their mom who works in the diary 

As we approached the dam, I told Skabby heel. I didn't want him plunging in as he always does because there was a family of Egytptian geese swimming at the far end (My dog is very obedient; he bounded off to the other side of the road to sniff at exciting things in the long grass while Mum took photos) 

Father goose (gander) at the rear watching for danger; Mother goose ahead and the seven goslings swimming ahead of their parents 

I zoomed in on one adventurous gosling. He had to swim upstream! 

When I saw the parents guiding their offspring towards the reeds,  I called Skabby who dived into the dam on the near side. They didn't even notice him!

HAPPY SATURDAY TO YOU ALL!
