Great sighting of 3 otters (probably a mother and 2 kits) on our lake on Jan 8th cheered up an otherwise very wet day. Very rare to get 5 minutes to watch these wonderful creatures just having fun!

Fortunately the chickens are safely behind an electric fence about 25 yards from where this was taken!

The sound of a waterlogged plaintiff bleating filtered across the field from one of our lakes today and we were surprised to see a newly born lamb swimming across! He was clearly not going to be able to get out and so we launched the Butstone Farm lifeboat and went to rescue him. We found him up against the bank, happy to be lifted on board by Christine and then to be dried off and set off into the fields again. It all happens here!

A 35 minute drive today and we were walking in gorgeous countryside in the Dartmoor National Park ar Castle Drogo. The beautiful Teign Vallay was at its best with views of the moor alternating with woodland and the trout and salmon waters of the river itself.

It has been quite a hard slog to get this sorted, but the polytunnel has gone from a barren (but weeded!) area to producing these delicious peppers, chillies, garlic, cucumbers, courgettes and many other things on the way!
