Feeling Lush

 

I cannot recall when this property was so green and lush with life.  There we have neighbouring cattle over communing with a steady goat that's taken up residence here.  Some weeks ago we had a flush of kid goats, they're playing on an old fallen tree keeping up of the long, damp grass.  

Birdlife is busy too; there was some strange call just before dawn that ive never heard. It sounded like someone hitting a tennis ball followed by an "ah" sound,  like the shot went out.  It must have been odd because the rosters have up their incessant banter around the valley.  We have a community of Willywagtails, game as Ned and quite songful. I do love their machine gun chatter anyhow,  and they're good big munched .  No snakes or ticks,  a few mozzies,  but really very enjoyable. 

   It's possible too, that i am the happiest and fittest I've ever been.  Working hard,  eating less and thinking about roofing and paddling.  Life is indeed lush right now.
