A watershed moment


Today 13th June is the first day of the Rectory Reserve Web Site. Here we will demonstrate the life and times of the Rectory Reserve Animals. We've spent so much time over the past few years watching, and laughing at or being amazed by, the antics of our (and the wild) animals. Our friends and family have been regaled (or inundated) with stories of the goings-on and have frequently said we should publish them. So, from now on we will....
And since it is a watershed moment, we're starting with these two characters. Dippy II and one of his 'favourites', Molly. They're actually residents of the Poultry palace but, as you can see here, they are pretty free-ranging. This is Molly taking her morning bath in one of the horses' feed bowls..... Yes - they do have a pond but, clearly, this is much more exclusive!
