Photographs of your Dexters ....

[Rob R]

- we drove these guys 1.7 miles to fresh grazing today.

Did you let the black and white one sit in the front Rob ...it looks rather startled!!!

No, drove as in walked. It looked even more startled when one of the younger ones fell in the river! It's a good job Dexters are such good swimmers. Unfortunately I didn't have the light levels to take any photos.

I thought the last one taken by Natalie on broomstick,

Duncan

I'm going to tell her that...

It was nice knowing you.

Thought I would be safe enough here Rob, then someone pointed out that by broomstick Bute is not so far away from Yorkshire as I thought.

It seems to get wetter and wetter here. The Burnside herd usually stay up here from October till end of January without any extra feeding. The ground has a dry stane dyke boundary which usually has limousin and holstein heifers on the other side in summer, so not used until they go in for the winter. Lots of rough grass for them and lots of shelter from whins.

Think I might Dehorn him! Don't want him to have the horns like his mother. Then he will be Posh Dexter.
