Ardenner |
|
|
|
 |
 |
|
Skoghast |
|
Ardenner
is the name of this Belgic breed which was very common as a
working horse in the farms in older days in Sweden, and now
unfortunately is threatened by eradication.
Skogshäst
means horse who is working with timber in the forests.
|
...
maybe you wonder why one of the horses is standing all
alone before the cart while the other one is lying down in the
country road.
Well the
man had to un-harness this horse quickly because of acute
colicky pains, and he was struggling with trying to call for a
vet when I happened to show up and helped him to hold the horse,
2 Swedish km (2000 meters) from Humlekärr.

Meantime, Berit has been secretly fooling me again !!! |
|
|
|
|
 |
 |
|
|
|
 |
I did not noticed that little hen Berit was fooling
me again -
today she came out from a shrubbery in the chicken
run with 9 new hatched chicks!!!!
Her nest is in a cave in the earth that the rabbits
have dug out!!!
|
|
|
|
 |
There is a
swallow's nest up in a corner of the ceiling in the hen
house, and now the chicks are hatched.
But it is
very difficult to take photos since I have to use a ladder ...
and it is
nearly impossible to angle 'Old Betty' - my camera - as it is
too close to the roof...
and mum
and dad swallow are very angry at being photographed and attack
me !!!! |
|
|
|
 |
 |
|
|
|
|
I
think you will agree these photos are worth it though ...
wonderful summer !!! |

PS:
it was
Sue
who sent these roses to Humlekärr over the Internet as a
reminder of our Stockholm day out
...and this was the first time ever a flower messenger
came all the way out to Humlekärr - the middle of nowhere.
Also my sister's finger-prints are on the camera -
but we still like the photo !!!
