Our house -Another mystery solved

It’s been a few years since we moved to our new house, and we have most things sorted out, but every now and then I learn something new.

Our water supply falls out of the sky, onto our roof, through the spouting, and into a tank.

I always wondered how do I clean out the spouting and pipes to the water tank?

Then a chance conversation with a neighbour cleared things up and  a light bulb came on..

I always wondered what this giant plug was for in the garden, and now I know…

P.S. two years of dirty water came out, lucky we had a water filter….

Egg Season

The chickens are in full swing -6 chickens are giving us 5 eggs a day

The ducks tend to make nests anywhere, so you need to quietly sus out where..

Last year, two ducks gave us 29 ducklings, this year we only have room for about ten, so we are quietly removing most of the eggs

Victoria is sitting on about a dozen eggs..

Our pair of geese had about 15 eggs, which I quietly removed every couple of days. Obviously, I’ve missed one or two because she’s now sitting on them full time.

Do not disturb, or bad things will happen to you..

Meanwhile, our male goose (Aurthur) is looking lost without his mate around.
