Just checking the stock ! by happypat

Just checking the stock !

Will have to resort to a filler today I am afraid but it is a favourite one !!! Have been out for a meal with all Harry's old Young Farmer friends so didn't like to get the camera out !! Dreary out side & we are also going out tonight so no time today !
This is little Max in his jim jams in front of their house in NZ looking over their fields at the calves . I love this shot as he has not been long walking but I think we have a farmer in the making !!! Four of their seven dogs in this photo too !
This photo was taken about a moth ago !

Just realised 'old Young Farmer'' friends sounds odd !!! There is an organisation in the UK called Young Farmers & it is a club for country kids where they take part in things like cattle judging, rallys, dances etc ! In our day it was a great dating agency ,you would call it now, where like minded youngsters met their future partners ! Sadly now I think there are less clubs around, although quite a few in Wales I believe !
Fantastic photo. It looks a bit like an illustration - just great.

I'm sure Max will be a member in NZ before too long!! We still have it in places in Scotland too!

They should have another club called, 'Not quite as young as we were farmers'! This is a brilliant shot - that hill doesn't look realit's so pretty and with the bright splash of babygrow it's quite surreal - I feel there should be a Tellytubby somewhere!!

Oh yes, definitely a little farmer in the making here! Little Max seems to be quite the guy as he checks it all out. Gorgeous catch of him and the amazing scenery, Pat.

What a gorgeous photo - your little man in his PJ's, overlooking the herd! Just precious. As for the young farmers clubs - we used to have them here as well, in fact I think there are probably some still operating.

I like the shot of Max peering through the fence one side, and the dogs at the other, relaxing. They've seen it all before. :)
