Some strange companions seen next to the road on our return.
A beautiful view of the mountain in this serene and colorful farm setting.
Farmlife is abundant in our historical area and one can see some old farms that were established in the 1600s. Then of course there are also modern farms and wine estates that were built on some old farms.
So, we have a wide variety of farms that can be seen from the public roads as one travels along.
Beautiful views indeed.
The Merino sheep I know, but from a distance I thought that there was a black Merino at the back and I have never seen a black Merino sheep.
Turns out that it was a black pig that took a feeding stroll with the sheep.
A solitary Pied Crow stood here on the farm road. I think that he was telling the fence to get out of his way.
A lovely Donkey with some geese at the back.
I think that you can see that this is a Billy Goat, wiping his beard against a post.
Two imports looked at us and I think that they are Pilgrim Geese, natives of England.
Finally a lovely view as we crested the mountain pass.
One has to love nature to really appreciate mankinds co-existence with it.
Farmers are people of the soil and all of them have a very strong bond with nature and even the weather patterns. It is a natural gifting.
Years of experience have taught them how to cultivate crops suitable to the soil and how to use the natural resources of nature.
The mistakes that many make in modern times is that they want to become instant farmers and they plant products that are not suitable for the conditions, not only this, but there are also many other factors of farming that they do not know. There are many tricks to successful farming and it takes a lifetime to learn all of the ins and outs.
We applaud all of the farmers that put food on our tables.
And That's All Friends!
