Short Straw

Hello!

It’s Daisy here, having drawn the short straw of writing the blog. Mum has been reliving her nursing days by assisting our neighbour with transport to the hospital.  I wasn’t sure if I was up to the challenge of looking after the entire household/horsehold/doghold/cathold.

So it was up to me to walk the dogs today.

The search for rabbits ensued.

Loki prefers to jump across the burn rather than get his paws wet.

Meanwhile, BeAnne ponders life, gazing at her own reflection.

When Mum returned, we went to see the Bebbies.

There was constant competition for attention between the Bebbies and BeAnne.

I think we can agree who won.

Last but not least….

A photo of the author who deserves your appreciation for keeping this blog going everyday. Which is no easy task (believe me!).

    This blog is such a joy to read! I love the photos, and I love the updates on all the animals. It also reminds me how much I want to return to Shetland. Thank you so much for bringing a small part of it into my life every day.

    Woo-hoo – good job Daisy! Love that very noble photo of BeAnn looking off into the distance, in deep thought, no doubt.
    And the last photo with your Mum was the perfect finale…
