We have some horses visiting with us for a few weeks to make good use of the green grass. 🙂

Misty mountain cow

Cool but sunny start to the day for my work trip to Hobart

Feeding my wife’s gorgeous flock of dairy sheep while she is visiting her family back in Austria and the sheep were enjoying their time under a full rainbow. 🐑 🌈

First negative temps this morning. Beautiful but means the grass will soon stop growing.

My home town Sheffield has been gorgeous from start to end today, with a bit of bizarre thrown in. We started this morning with the first snow on Mount Roland, with the day ending with a UFO cloud over the farm, which sat opposite a good old flaming sunset. #sheffield #tasmania #UFO #sunset#snow

My wife took this photo of the only apricot we harvested from a new tree this year sitting on the kitchen counter top. But I think it’s actually a photo of a planet far far away.

This is proper vacation time ❤️

A couple of weeks holiday in Thailand after the end of my 12 month work contract. Some rare surf at where I’m staying so I couldn’t be happier. #bottlebeach #thailand #kohphangan #holidays

Thank you Canada for maple syrup 🍁😀

My wife produces most of our food on our homestead. She is my tireless hero. Sourdough strawberry pancakes and raw sheep milk cream. We do have to buy Canadian maple syrup - but do so happily as it is a healthy treat.

The homestead during the recent cherry blossom season. #homestead #tasmania #cherryblissom

Take Murphy for a walk after a day in the office and enjoy a beer and fish burger for dinner. Great location where dogs are welcome.

Cute little chicks keeping warm in the morning sunshine.

Proud first time mum Gypsy with her gorgeous little bull calf (Gypsy) Georgie. New born calves are always my favourite part of homestead life 😀

My cow Gypsy has given birth to her first calf this morning - so my dear wife tells me. I’m at work and may not get to see the calf until tomorrow, but this is its dad on the left when he was on the farm, so this will do until I see the little one in the flesh.

A photo of our secret location for Tasmanian pepper berries. We head up to the highlands once a year to pick these and we use them on the homestead instead of pepper. I was riding past the other day and took the picture for my wife’s inspection.

Throwback to Dotti the border collie when she was a puppy in 2020. She has developed into an amazing sheep herder under my wife’s care and love’s her job.

Berry picking season has officially begun. A$10 a kg for spray free strawberries - best deal around.

My #blueskycows I have to go find them when I get out of bed. ‘Elite cowspotter’ in my bio are not empty words - it’s my main farm duty, in addition to keeping the wood stove running in winter. It’s the start of summer tomorrow and was still cold enough for a fire 🔥 last night.

Enjoying the view with Murphy and Tivoli

Where is Obi-Wan? He’s our only hope.

Cherry blossom season has just been and gone. Ornamentals are not a thing we usually appreciate as we reckon a plant that is food is beautiful and life giving, but the cherry blossom 🌸 is undeniably the most glorious tree in the garden and I love it’s ephemeral beauty. #cherryblossom #sakura #love

I’m buying a new motorbike today. This is my current motorbike. 1977 Honda CB750 K7. Im getting a Suzuki V-Strom 650 as something more suitable for regular riding. My wife thinks I’m selling the K7 but have decided to do that quite yet.

I was on Twitter for a couple of years to keep informed on various topics of interest to me, but posted zero times. On Bluesky, i am actually posting and enjoying it - even having nice conversations with strangers. #abetterplace #ilovebluesky #talkingtostrangers

I’m so glad you’re here on Bluesky, Tracey

Raw milk is the best but my wife is the supplier and you have to trust the food safety standards of your supplier. The other stuff you listed is bad.

Murphy thanks you. He’s an excellent companion and I’m glad to have him.
