It was a warm day, and so the dogs took every opportunity to cool off in the many lochs along the way:

And of course, any self respecting Westie has to take the time to have a really, really good roll:

Once the rolling was over, Peggy spotted something which took them all by surprise. Just metres away from where Lexie had been rolling, there was this:

Want a closer view?

Clearly it's Mum had gone off for a feed, and told it to lie still, no matter what. Fortunately as soon as Peggy spotted it, Stevan called her and she came immediately, and they all left the little creature in peace. But isn't it beautiful. The markings are lovely, and it looks like it has quite a lot of growing to do if it's ever to be big enough for its ears.
The anticipation for Woolfest continues to grow. As soon as I've had a chance I'll take a couple of photo's to show you a few items that will be going with me.

I was on a day trip, today, up north, and saw an eagle floating on the wind and a Blue Heron in a creek. That was my thrill for the day but yours tops mine! :O)

Found on my patio yesterday, just a couple of feet away from my front door, One 2' long snake, harmless but I really don't want one indoors, especially as I cant even move at the moment.

Our Whistler, rolls in deer droppings all time, he stinks when comes in. I am forever yelling at him to know it off, he looks at me, totally ignores my comments, flopps on his back and has a really good go. He's taught his little sister to do it now, she has to do everything he does. A Schipperke and a Shih Tzu rolling down the hill on their backs stinking to high heaven.
