Five o'clock fox!

So...this afternoon we lost Branwen. There was a commotion and Andrew, who is up visiting, shouted and as I got outside I saw something fox coloured running off with one of our black hens. I ran after to try and catch up but lost the trail. Later, checking on the others I could see it was Branwen missing. Arke and Pacha are our other black hens. They are the only ones left from our original flock. Losing Branwen is sad enough but losing Pacha or Arke would have been slightly worse.

Poor Branwen. I would set the fox trap tonight except I doubt it will be hungry now plus we are off on an adventure tomorrow and so it will have to wait until we get back.

44 mm!

So...last night it rained all night and there was 44 mm in the rain gauge this morning. Rain was predicted but we did not expect so much. All our tanks are full.

Woo Hoo!
