Frances at Drumlin Farm

The Mass Audubon's Drumlin Farm, a working farm and wildlife sanctuary, had a free day a couple weekends ago. I love free, and I've wanted to see the farm, so we headed on out. The first display, an American crow, worried me a bit, but things got more interesting. Frances was very pleased with the owls; she hooted at them.


Mark was really impressed with the goats.



So was Frances. She told them what was what.




Frances checked in with the sheep, but we hurried her along to the small mammal showing we'd seen advertised.




This was the small mammal. Frances was pretty sure it was a dog. It wasn't.



Next, we stopped in at the nicest pig barn I've ever seen.



This was their mama pig,...



...and this was Frances's face when she saw the mama pig.


We finished up in the horse barn, where Frances tried out an English saddle.



There was much too much to see before Frances needed a nap, so we'll be heading back soon, free day or not.
