to the back paddock, hay in hand I spot the two ladies right at the far back fence of their 30 acre paddock ... I call out .... "SWEETIE .... c'mon!!"
Her chestnut head turns towards me and I can see her thinking to herself ... " Could this possibly be a a food call? Or, is she going to do something to me? Ah, hay in hand, all clear Libby - let's go!"
I dont have to shout twice as I can see that she has decided its a food call rather a call for a pat or something useless like that.
I feel the ground start to rumble underneath me..... Shorts (Pictured above, eating her lunch...) and Floss in their yard are galloping around like mad things. Lenny and Jake feel the movement in the earth's crust as well and start squealing and bucking like a couple of banshees.
Could this be an earthquake? Could this be the end of the world as we know it?
Ah, no... its Sweetie and Libby moving "quickly" over to the gate to get to their hay. This gait is known as the trobbling gait ... which is trotting and wobbling at the same time!
LOL
As I watch Sweetie and Libby come over to me I have to laugh at their stomachs .... as they wobble over its amazing just how much bigger they seem and with them now officially in their last trimester they are going to get a lot bigger and Sweetie's fuse diminish to almost nothing!
'Tis a lovely time of the year me thinks.
