Farm Photos

The prize is.... 2 peacock eggs, 4 guinea fowl eggs, 2 turkey eggs, 2 goose eggs and 6 duck eggs

That's all I have to offer but postage included

Sooo, what's the prize again? An omelette?

Regards.

Edit:

I suppose I'm disqualified now?

So, my last Sunday on the boat in France..

Back to sunny Cornwall on Tuesday for a well earned pasty or 5, then back home to Surat on the 6th June

Therefore, it's competition time !!

Guess what it is... There will be some landscaping photos in following posts, so nearly relevant ??

Ahem! Cornish! Where did you think of that name?

I would like to thank you for sharing your feelings of happyness in life with us. I feel more happy after reading your post. On pic #1 you really seem you are actually wanting to draw the plans, good acting!

This however made me question your own liability.

You can go to any building site and set up this charade.

In the south of France there are many migrant workers from Espana who could be paid to 'pose' in your photo's as Thai workers.

Also you seem to have covered up all the French marks or writing on the trucks by cleverly blurring that image. The ducks are not from thailand, these, along with the geese are a delicacy in France and easy to get. You have probably eaten them already.

I still live in Holland. And these New Holland trekkers from Thailand are just as common here.

Good you stay so mysterious about your actual plans. You made me curious about burying a concrete pipe in the middle of nowhere. This pipe can be used for many purposes.

I love a good conspiracy!

Speaking of Ducks....

Speaking of Ducks....

Mr BookMan I love it when you talk quackers !!!!

Was wondering how I was going to manage sneaking in a couple more duck photos without anyone noticing.

this is photo of us catch the shrimp

I like this one because it show action and every one moving

@Mr. Cornish. I discovered you dominated the 'Walen discussion'. In the end there still is no clear answer . You asked the right questions there. After i lost my rights to the NONO visa I have been working out to get his variant.

@The Bookman. Love to have seen the ducks congregating when confronting an automobile. Nice your gf shares this with you.

@ Teligter, I have no idea what the competition is about because i never really understood what Carlos wrote. So please gentlemen, take your best shot in order to win the eggs. Must be an eggs thing.

@MissFrmgirl, I am attracted by photo's that show many things going on.

Hi There MissFarmGirl.Welcome back

Thank you for sharing your action photo

[Dancealot]

@Missfarmgirl, i found this to explain what i meant. I enjoy watching because i like to discover new things on this picture i did not see before. I still do not know why they where so happy. But i do not want to know.

@Sir, Shaggy, Listen

Some ducks....

Au revoir mes amis

Looks to me that you will be building a house or maybe even a garage/shop looking at what possibly could be a dual driveway.

[Dancealot]

I believe you hinted the ducks and the pipe connect through water.

Everything has been covered up neatly except for a large hole in the middle which was intentionally left. Further the 2 concrete pipes converge in this hole in the ground. Also due to the apparent highest place around through the relief in the landscape indicates all water entering will naturally stream away from this hole.

Au revoir, mes amis, indicates you consider the ducks contribute to the final purpose of the project.

Sugar tree? Is that the name of the farm?

Regards.

I should have explained that, I am so used to hearing it.

It is cane sugar. When we first met my GF didnt know the English words for it and described it to me as 'Sugar Tree'. The name has simply stuck and that farm is referred to as the Sugar Tree Farm. The other farm is the Rice Farm.

Here is a couple of photo's of a neighbours Jack Fruit tree.This tree is loaded every year with above average sized fruit.

While I have seen individual fruit much larger elsewhere,this tree is consistently above average size.

My dog Abhisit manages to get into the 1st one while he's checking out the next doors chooks.If he wasn't on a leash,they

would be dead meat by now.

A gentle breeze.

The shed from the storm earlier in the year and new the new construction starting,will update as they progress.

The GFs cows at her farm in Thailand.

While in Australia we have driven all around NSW and seen many a cow with very little interest from herself. Some acknowledgement of their difference, that is all.

Sheep however are a totally different matter. The first few times there was almost excitement at seeing a flock of Sheep. Of course the moment always need a photo, not an easy task to convince Sheep to stay close enough to the fence to be in picture.

We have also been lucky to see in the wild a few Swamp Wallabies, some Kangaroos, an Emu, Echidnas, Cockatoos, Galahs, and a Wombat! No Koalas in the wild as yet.
