Fairy Girls "fresh".........

Bad luck if you're offended by this post but Fairy Girl has been wandering about with me taking the "fresh" pics and she wanted a "fresh" cow pat........I mentioned this to Leanne and she really pushed the challenge so here we go Fairy Girls pics.........there was a cow near the trough when we went out and she told her to do a poo.........well the cow took about 3 steps and up went the tail and here we have the "fresh" pics...............
this is what you get when you click and nearly fall over............
ground angle.......
WARNING................
 when taking pics of cow poos watch where the other bit dropped and don't step in it.............Fairy Girl was most disgusted when I took this photo............woops..........

Fresh paddocks..............

this little water hole is covered with lily pads since the rain and Friday when I was mustering sheep I found it full of yellow lily flowers and I didn't have the camera it was magical..........

Challenge something metal

There is a funny story behind this photo challenge. Donna sent us a email to jump start us back to our weekly challenge. I thought what a great idea Christmas was over. Of course I didn't read the email properly I looked at the old list of challenges and headed out taking "blue"photos.
Then when I saw Donna's photo I read the email again and realised Donna had put some other challenges up.
This is fairly typical of me. I never read instructions.
Here are my Blue photos.

One for you Donna

It was the ferry that sailed between Port Adelaide and Kangaroo Island.
