The Sheep

The young rams are pedigree Berrichon Sheep, used for breeding and showing at local shows. The ewes are Texels - their lambs were born late April.

Our domesticated ducks

There should be one plump(!) Aylesbury duck and some Indian Runner Ducks - very friendly; if you chose to, please feed sparingly.

Muntjac Deer

There is a female living in the corner of the field, often seen grazing the paddocks or drinking from the pond at dusk

​

Roe Deer

Far shyer than the Muntjac, but often seen as a pair or more coming from the woods to graze.

Birds

Kingfishers, Herons, Little Egrets, Greylag Geese, Swans and Little Grebe all visit the pond at varying times - Moorhens are laying, with chicks expected around early June. Barn Owl, Sparrow Hawk, Green and Spotted Woodpeckers can be seen over the paddock, and the Buzzards soar over the woods.
