A wee bit windy!

The wind has been absolutely horrendous today, so much so when the girls went out this morning they ran about 50 yards up the track and turned back round and ran back on mass - they didn't fancy a windy day on the hill then!
 
I can't say as I blame them to be honest it was so bluster the hens were being blown all over the place and little Azrael was being pushed off course on his was to the field.  At least the littlies made it (Azrael is at the back with the coat on).
 
These three fluff balls, Plato, Palace & James were enjoying a good run round in the wind.

 
On my sheep rounds I was hanging on to the quad for dear life for fear of being blown off.  Thankfully no one decided it would be a good idea to lamb early and Nutmeg (goat) still has her legs crossed.  In fact I'm going to put my reputation on the line here and say I think Mia, my pet sheep will beat her and lamb first; so watch this space!

Windy here too but use a breeze in comparison. No hens blown off their feet ( sorry poor hens but it did make me smile...I can just imagine their annoyance!). Where is this birthing weather??
