There are some photos taken in Summer 2005.
Now it's 2006, I suppose I'd better get the camera out again!

This is the Croft Lotions and Potions display at Simply Unique.
Simply Unique is the only shop in Caithness that ONLY sells local
hand made crafts - there is nothing mass produced in this store.



Sprite

Sprite is a Lipizzaner thoroughbred cross, registered Scottish Sports horse,
descended from the famous Mill Reef line. She's a very talented three year old mare.

The croft at night

 

The front page of this website has a photo of the croft at night, with a full moon and
mist over the fields. Here are some more photos I took that night:

 


The birds

 

When I say my eggs are free range, I really mean free range!

the chickens, socialising together


looking in on the horses


the geese are looking hungry


teaching baby


keep close to mother!


well hello there!

 


The cows

 

Say hello to Flo, Maisy, and Maisy's mum, Clover

Miscellaneous pictures

 


Bailey thinks that no page is complete unless he is on it.
Here he shows his best side to the camera


The piglets - yes, these are the same tiny piglets
you can see on the animals page. How they've grown!


herbs growing by the front door


The wishing well in the garden.
A quiet place to go and relax.

 


Coming soon...

 

We've done alot of work on the croft since last year.
When the grass gets longer and everything's in bloom,
I'll take more panoramic photos. Watch this space!
