My wide angle RF14-35mm lens is seeing more action than any of the others in my kit at the moment! The sunset and clouds the other night were spectacular so I raced out just before dark to catch these shots of the hay roll paddock across the road and looking ...
It's been really chaotic around here lately, I even missed photographing Dolly and Molly lambing although they both lambed at the same time of the morning as the two Polly's. Molly lambed first, another boy with the tiniest cream patch near his eye, so we have called him Pirate, and ...
I'm starting to think that Piglett might have been born a bit early and Koala is only 3 days old but so much more advanced from day 1 than Piglett was (its been so many years since we last had lambs its hard to remember what is and isn't normal. ...
Lovely little Lola has gallantly sat on a huge clutch of eggs this spring and successfully hatched 13 gorgeous little pure bred Belgian d'Uccle chicks. They are so tiny, we have nick named them 'popcorn chicken' while the Australorp chicks are 'Chicken Nuggets'. We snuck them into the studio today ...
After a ridiculously long wait, lamb number two is here, another little boy. He is a golden caramel type colour with chocolate legs that is gorgeous, however we are now a bit worried about the breeding behind our Wiltipol-White Dorper ewes and hoping the colour has come from their white ...

I've always enjoyed having a mixed flock of chicken breeds, but we have decided to breed some pure heritage breed chickens so have acquired an Australorp rooster (suitably named Aussie) to breed with our existing black and blue Australorp hens. We still have the Belgian d'Uccle's who are amazing at ...
After weeks of waiting and expecting the girls to evict their passengers at any moment, our first lamb for the season was born early this morning. Thankfully Polly 1 lambed without any problems, although I was a bit worried for a little while that she wasn't progressing fast enough, mum ...
The new merino cross sheep we got for training Indi last month have settled in well and are now gaining weight on all the green grass we have. Three of the Wiltipol ewes look ready to pop any day now, unfortunately not knowing when the white dorper ram got in ...
