Blue skies and happy critters

It was a beautiful day today, so all the animals at RASTA were out enjoying the sun and the new spring growth.

Maggie May checks out what I'm up to in the pasture

Simon has something to say - I'm not sure what!
(Captions, anyone?)

The donkeys are enjoying the new spring shoots of grass.
I think this is Romeo, but can't tell them apart unless they are together!

Theo, Benson and Nibbles.

Lucie and I gave a powerpoint presentation (my first - the job I've been so busy with this past week or so) for a service organization last night, and now that is finished perhaps I can get back to my regularly scheduled programming blogging - well, in between hiking, gardening, and finishing up a few grant applications.  Come back soon! :)
