Spring work 1 ...at last!! by happypat

Spring work 1 ...at last!!

Busy ploughing all the fields behind us, it will be nice to see them all turned over & tidy instead of maize stumps.
Excellent weather for it , dry & sunny.

Three good things:
1. I have had my feet done at Cathy's...bliss!
2. While I was there I resisted a piece of raspberry torte...would have been a bit different later in the day though!!!
3. My resolution to put the cat out more often is going well....she has taken a great aversion to going outside...not a good thing, toughen up girl!!!!
She perhaps has agoraphobia!!!!!
Wonderful seeing the farmers getting on with the preparation ,may it be a little late

A sure sign, they surely have the word Spring is here. They would know, right?

I think she probably has weatherophobia! Lovely to see a tractor out. Reached the dizzy heights of 6.5C today in between the snow so I may be tempted into the garden soon (mostly cooking tomorrow though..) I wish I had Cathy nearby - corn plasters doing no good at all!

@judithg I'l tell her, they are off to London on Monday for a couple of nights she could just do a little detour!!! LOL !
March 30th, 2013  
@happypat Hahaa - if she could just interrupt her visit I'll be in London on Tuesday ;0)
March 30th, 2013  
@judithg Ha yes your big birthday celebrations ....perhaps you could arrange to have your feet done on the London Eye...would be a first, & last probably!! he he !!
March 30th, 2013  
@happypat Yeah - she wouldn't be able to look at the view or I'd have my toe off!
March 30th, 2013  
Lovely layers and tones. I see there's still water lying in the fields.
March 30th, 2013  
Nice to see the birds following the tractor - a seasonal meaning. Perhaps the cat is scared of another more aggressive cat around?

@busylady Yes just a bit in odd places but generally its dried out lots...we haven't had any proper rain for ages now.

@maggiemae No she's just lazy maggiemae & getting on now I suppose, fourteen in May. She would just love to sit on someone's knee all day!!

Quite different from my tractor scene - its amazing how much less snow you get in the west. Lots of nice layers of colour though.

@fueast Yours was a cracker!! I was too far off here really to get a decent shot, I had my long lens fully extended.
March 30th, 2013  
Great farm scene.
March 30th, 2013  
Happy Easter to you, Pat.
March 30th, 2013  
Lovely comp, Pat! I can "smell" the fresh earth! Still a bit cold here ... wishing you a very Happy Easter. Perhaps the cat just loves your cozy kitchen and your company! :) P.S. I couldn't have resisted that torte. :)
March 31st, 2013  
Woohoo spring!
March 31st, 2013  
Really like your composition
March 31st, 2013  
Wonderful Pat, great lines and shape!! Very pleasing to see spring work starting, Wales is way behind!
March 31st, 2013  
ooops....have a Happy Easter dear girl!

Lovely countryside scene

Oh fresh dirt smells so wonderful. Ours is still fairly frozen, but I might still have a go at turning a couple beds. Maybe your cat's senses aren't as keen and she is worried she might not hear or see as well...
March 31st, 2013  
Nice clear focusing here.
March 31st, 2013  
Lovely scene. Nice capture.
March 31st, 2013  
fab letterbox, fab tractor, fab birds...fabulous image Pat :)
March 31st, 2013  
Lovely photo. You are a much better person than I, in resisting a raspberry torte. I just could not do that ;-)
March 31st, 2013  
Looks like a lovely day for Spring plowing. So good to see warmer weather make an appearance...finally! Wonderful shot. And, as always, I love your three good things.
March 31st, 2013  
Must be nice to be able to get to this

Lovely shot of agriculture.
There is so much similarity to farming no matter where you go in the world.
I'm anxious to get on with the spring work ... it was snowing today!

So nice for you to have spring in the air. A freshly plowed field is such a lovely sight. The seagulls seem to be enjoying it.
