Sorry but this is not on our farm! I have been trying to get a shot of seagulls and a plough for weeks and been unable to do so as every field I came across being ploughed was empty of birds!! This is in fact David's niece's husband ploughing with a few seagulls.
Thanks Nick. I have looked at your linking of art and poetry. It is an interesting idea - there is a book of RS Thomas poetry (my favourite poet) in which he writes a poem against each painting he has chosen. Do you know it?
I am a widow for the second time - first marrriage 39 years, second marriage 23 years - both very happy. My second marriage was to a farmer and when he died the farm was sold. I now live in the nearby small town on the edge of Wensleydale in The Yorkshire Dales. My beloved Border Terrier died a couple of years ago - I still miss her but as I am 90 and need carers I shalln't get another I have one son,who lives nearby with his wife, three grandchildren, one step grandchild, two great grandchildren and two step great grandchildren..Life is good.

Such a beautiful farm you have! Just lovely!
Nice poem! and I liked the story about the holly trees. I came across from Abraham Lincoln Bird Blog.

Gosh this brings back memories of home on the farm with the gulls hovering over freshly plowed earth.
Love it Weaver!
