Every morning, without fail, since they have lived here (which is nearly 10 months!) Dahlia and Gussie turn up at their field gate for breakfast.<\/p>\n

Today they weren\u2019t there and so of course I started worrying.<\/p>\n

Finishing up with everyone else, I set off across their field, which they share with the oldies, to look for them while clutching their breakfast in two bowls.\u00a0 In my head, I was imagining Gussie with one of his horns stuck in the wire fence, or Dahlia was dead and Gussie would refuse to leave her.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Nope, they were actually quite close by and had forgotten it was breakfast time.\u00a0 They seemed pleased to see me and came running up. I put their bowls down for them to eat.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Luckily, the others didn\u2019t want to join in with this which would\u2019ve made life tricky.<\/p>\n

These two don\u2019t hang about with food (not like Lambie who dithers for hours, picking out the bits he likes best).\u00a0 Breakfast is a big deal for them, always has been, so I have no idea why they didn\u2019t come up and ask.\u00a0 Perhaps they would\u2019ve turned up later.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In fact, they would\u2019ve been pleased if I had brought more.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

But I hadn\u2019t so they will have to appear at the gate tomorrow morning.<\/p>\n
