END OF AN ERA - THE LAST POULTRY
With my declining health, we felt obliged to close down 25 years
of keeping geese, hens, ducks, pheasants, guinea fowls and goats
on the land, and hand it over to others to use. So the last generation
of birds joins the family protraits, and they go to:
the deep freeze
a farmer at Sefton
a farm at Loburn
We retain 3/4 of an acre around the house and classroom, and the rest has been allocated to 2 families.

To view in 3-D, hold your finger 2-3" before
your nose
while sitting 18" back from the screen. When your eyes converge on the
finger, the scene should also converge behind it.
Then allow your eyes to refocus on the
photo without
losing the central picture.
