That time of the year when the grass is taller than the prettiest chicken.

What is the sound of Spring?
A thousand bees humming in the olive tree? The songs of the blackbird?
Or the chicken clucking happily at the patch of clover she found under the same olive tree where the bees hum and the blackbird sings?

Oats are growing nicely

The oats have come out nicely from our ploughing back in August.

Did you know: the yellow flowers you see in the front give the bright yellow color in the yolks of Hilltops eggs.

We all love Spring.

The moon is out and the chickens are out on an evening walk. Peaceful farm evenings with a hint of the red Australian dust in the sky.
