On 9 Jun 2026 By la dame aux ânesIn In EnglishLeave a comment

They were born yesterday. Six lively little fluffy balls of different colours, eager to see the world. On the upper nest, a few more tomorrow if we are lucky. Every time it gets my heart. I melt like an ice cube in the sun. I could spend hours just watching them in complete wonder, without …

On the 19th December 2025 I was leaving home at 6.30am to drive to this hotel near the airport in Toulouse. The morning session was scheduled to start at 9am. I was there just a few minutes early. With the French farmers demonstrating on motorways and major roads, the journey had taken a while longer …

Coop story

On 15 Jul 2025 By la dame aux ânesIn In English2 Comments

A few weeks ago, one of our two queenies decided to sit on her wooden egg. ( Lovely it was, very realistic, bought in a car boot sale in a bag of 10, that I believe was meant to be used for dawning socks)  I thought she was going to sit on it until she …

Our short-term boarding house

I've just returned from two days in the Pyrenees, and spring is putting on a party for me! everything is exploding the day after my return. The tender greens of the elm, chestnut, ash, and lime trees dance magically in the breeze. The blue and purple irises have opened near the grain shed. All the …

” But it’s an aviary! “

On 2 Apr 2025 By la dame aux ânesIn In EnglishLeave a comment

Philippe is impressed. Behind the double-glazed French window, comfortably seated in an armchair, we can watch them all day without disturbing them, and it's such a treat. It's true, there are so many birds around the feeder at any given time, and this year seems to be the year of the nutcrackers. There have never …

A taste of freedom

 I hear the guineas calling but it’s way too loud and way too long, so I go down to investigate. With hunters everywhere, I'm not at ease. I find our guineas in the meadow, calling from joy to anyone who’s interested while grazing near the sheep. I can't help but smile at their happiness. I …
