Cria chasing

With the sun shining this morning and a slight delay in letting the weanling's out the race was on to get up the hill.

I thought I would try and get a series of photo's of the morning out and evening in.

On your marks....


This is them just leaving the shed, all those new owners out there can you spot your boys and girls?!

Now this is where I get left behind, get set....


I take a short cut but it's steeper and wetter; bad move!

The charge is on once they get into the channel...


Lily is last, she has a hot date booked with Sunburst sometime in the future.

Who won....


I have no idea because other than the last few they were mainly in the field already.

As I said I planned to photograph the journey back down the hill, but they were that quick by the time I'd go the camera out they were already half way down and by the time the lens cap was off I could only see Luca and Linus who are still missing there mums a bit so generally hang back in the hope they will catch up!

They were a little naughty tonight and had a bit of a run round the yard before they went to bed, someone smelt the haylage and there was a gathering at the bale!!!
