The magnificent Guinness has been busy with Whiskey, and is soon to become a father! Here is Sapphire giving Guinness a snuggle at the front door – such a loving, gentle, giant scruff. If you adore Irish Wolfhounds and would like to be on the list for a pup, let me know at katrina@redleaf-farm.com

This magnificent Satin Bowerbird found his was into my living room and was frantically admiring himself in the mirror above the mantlepiece. I approached slowly and picked him up gently to take him outside. He stayed sitting on my finger for several minutes – enough for me to reach the phone from my pocket andContinue reading “Blue Satin”

Sunny days and some rain have greened things up beautifully around Redleaf Farm. There are blossoms, daffodills, new lambs and naughty piglets everywhere, and a feisty goose is nesting by the front door – beware visitors! I caught this little fellow having a chat this afternoon… he’ll be looking good for early December Xmas partying!

It was a fun day, andContinue reading “Discovery…”

We celebrated Phoenix’s birthday with a pirate party at Redleaf Creek. The pirate ship was moved to a new position, with the ‘plank’ going into the creek. A treasure hunt, the flying fox, a waterfall abseil and suckling pork rolls kept everyone happy! The pirate ship through the spit-roast smoke-haze… Scurvy Sam and Ruthless RexContinue reading “Creek Pirates”
