Chamfron Ombu - 2 years old

Ombu who was two on Monday, loving life and very much loved!

Kelso Ladies Day

Lovely day at the races on Sunday, by the sounds of things we left before things got wild!

Chamfron Colada backed

Three year old Colada has been away with Steven Renton being backed and Gemma went up and had her first sit on her today.  Gemma's first ride after being on maternity leave went well and she says Colada has a really lovely trot.  Colada is home for a few more weeks hacking them she will be turned away again to finish growing.

More from the cameras

A good selection of photos on the wildlife cameras including some unlikely couples - Sam Fox and the neighbours cat, Sam Fox and some of Spikey (the hedgehog) and the one that has sadly not made it onto the blog due to blurriness - Squirrel with Ratty hot on it's tail!

Dog walking on the Moray Firth

Spent the last couple of days visiting my dad up on the Moray Firth, great weather and as always very well fed and watered!

Four year olds

The four year olds Chamfron Bellini and Ojo de Tigre out and about.

No stopping her!

Another very successful outing for the 4yo Chamfron Bellini - Natalie says "Love this mare.  Qualified for Great Midlands horse show and sunshine tour today.  69.75% in first test and 76.73% in second."  Couldn't of asked for a better home for this very smart filly.

Garden Wildlife Camera

Getting some good shots of the now brilliantly named (can't take any credit for it) Sam Fox, along with the jay, the squirrel and occasionally me (I have spared you the dressing gown and Ugg combo when I am putting out Sam snacks!)

Chamfron Santiago - 23 months old

Santi is looking very well grown and he has shed out a super colour, he is not quite two!

Hares

The hares here are incredible, we've laughed and watched them come up the garden path or hop over the patio.  This one was completely unbothered when I came back from the stables even when I rolled down the car window to take a phone photo, thought it was rather artistic with the Black Hill in the wing mirror!  I went back down with the real camera and laughed at incognito hare, hmmm one of these lambs is not like the other lambs even if they do all have big ears.  It's cover was soon blown.  I went back to the original hare and it was happy to pose for some close ups, nonchalantly eating daisies as I snapped.
