Non-Sequitur Farm

Here are two short videos, one from last night and one from this morning. I will work on getting more posted in the days to come.

Imogen delivered quadruplets with big flappy ears.

Time for a winter wonderland walk around Non-Sequitur Farm!

Mornings like this are fantastic for a walk about: the wind is calm, the air temp is below 32 so the ground has a decent crunch in places. You can hear all the birds with the blue jays scolding up in the trees.

As I approached the barn on my way to do chores this morning, I was greeted by the call of the domestic duck population complaining from the 2 acre pond that was mostly covered in a thin sheet of ice. They slowly pushed their way toward me breaking the ice as they forced through the ice. I wish I had gotten picks.

Post chores I took these pictures and the video. From the looks of things, I encountered the following tracks:

Deer (BIG with big hooves)
Deer (small, with tiny hooves)
Coyote
Red Fox
Raccoon
Muskrat, coming out of the pond to scrounge
Rabbits, perhaps 100,000 of them
Cats (more than just Mahindra)
Dogs (with a special showing from Gamut the neighbor dog)
Opossum (you can see their little tail drag in the snow)
Mink (probably, or another mustelid as we have weasels around, too)
Hundreds of tiny bird tracks light in the snow
Ducks (my ducks, no wild ducks that I could see or follow)
Chickens (my chickens because that's just how it is)

I only did a lap around the big pond but it was glorious. I am sure if I went into the woods I would have seen more variety.

We are expecting more gale force winds this weekend so this was my first big chance of a snow covered walk through the property.

Enjoy like me!

Couple photos of the magnificent vista from this morning. Heavy dew that was frosty in most places and accompanying fog waiting to be burned away by the sun. Going to be a gorgeous day!

Everyone is demanding breakfast.

I have not published a traffic report on the pond in a while. The place was positively brimming with activity this morning after chores.

When you find out Grogu is not a hen, the disappointment is balanced by the humorous crowing.
