It's like the farm is on fire these days.
The blueberry bushes are blazing red.
The Japanese Maples are spectacular.
The dried echinacea and sunflowers are beautiful.
Even a missing goat has to stop and look back.
And if you have to search for slugs, what prettier place than under blazing red bushes.
Hmm. It was taking this shot that lead me to a few epiphanies.
1. Taking pictures of ducks is really hard..and...
2. One of these things is not like the other!
It's that wee curl in the feather - do you see it. It doesn't seem like much.
But believe me, it is something!
That tiny added volume on Poppy's behind ...well, it doesn't mean she's been up early using a hot iron or rollers. It means only one thing.
Poppy is a Pepper.
Or in more simple terms - she is a he.

Absolutely beautiful. It would be hard to stay inside even it were cold out. Thanks for sharing. I cracked up at the feather curl! Do you mind if I share one of your pictures on my blog?
How cute! The colors are gorgeous on your farm! Carla
Wowie, so beautiful! I love those ducks. I'm thinking of expanding our "fruit production" beyond apples and pears, and would love to plant blueberry bushes next year. Did you plant all of them yourself? Any tips for planting and care? I'd love to hear from you!
Gorgeous!! Love the reds.
...Does that mean we get to see ...baby ducks in the spring!..
stunning pictures!
GORGEOUS photos today!!! How awesome for you to be surrounded in such spectacular color!
Love those duck bums!
Such lovely photos of fall
how idyllic!
I apologize for my ignorance, but what does Poppy is a pepper mean? I'm confused. Even so, I think that blueberry bushes in the fall are lovely.
I never knew blueberry bushes turned red; they are beautiful. And I never knew about the curl on a duck. There's a lot I don't know. Please tell us more.
Looking forward to visiting soon and seeing Poppy and friends up close.
I adore your photos! So soulful! The dried flowers are absolutely beautiful.

Love all the red! Absolutely beautiful. And I bet Poppy loves being the only he with two girls always by his side. Maybe you should change his name to Poppa.
These are g o r g e o u s shots! xx

Your garden looks really pretty with the autumn colours. Especially the colour of the blueberry bush is amazing!
