Being Intrepid!

The biggest  paddock on our place is the roughest! It's got swathes of bracken, gorse, broom, prickly bush and the stream which runs through it is choked with blackberries.
Last night armed with beer, cider, shears and clippers (dogs and the cat!) we headed out to at least cut a path for us to be able to get around the areas we have not been able to. It will be a bit of work to get this paddock in order along with the help of goats and maybe eventually the odd pig or two.
Treeka gingerly crossing the stream after Geoff cut a swathe through the blackberries.
 
 Getting there!
Possum found a rocky outcrop to view our progress.(Lilli was in my backpack at this stage, blackberries at ground level are eye piercing for a Chihuahua!)
Looking back towards the house
We came across this gorgeous fence pot with a cheeky hat of lichen on it. (You are going to love this place Jen!)

  1. That's fantastic! Don't let Possum sit on it!
