Donkeys Out In The Fresh Air

 Back out I came among the various displays about canola.


This large sculpture of canola bottles had moving parts. White marbles were traveling down the looping sections around it, and can be seen at centre, where they are on a spiraling line projecting them back upward to the top to start the whole process all over again.


Back outside, with a look at the Dairy Barn again from the outside.


The Small Animals Barn, where I was headed next.


And the Horse and Cattle Barn.


The donkeys were still engaged in lunch.

  3. It will be a while before I can see blooming canola fields. Can't remember the last time I saw a donkey.

  4. Canola coming into flower here just now. Donkey rides used to be a thing at our seaside resorts.

  5. That's a very pretty farm ! You won't find such here, but I saw similar farms in Wisconsin USA where my aunt lived, long time I wasn't here, Google has made a mess with this new comment system ! I never get blogger emails either and I have changed the parameters like they want !

  17. Canola was an improvement over rapeseed! And kiwi fruit sounds better than Chinese gooseberry!
