Holly Smith, aged 6 from Argyll,  drew us this lovely picture of one of our chickens. This one is Laisy, one of the orignal trio called Daisy Maisy and Laisy. Sadly, two died. But now we have more, rescued from a battery hen farm. They're called Chicken Little, Wing Commander, Flight Lieutenant and Bossy. You're welcome to help collect the eggs when you visit.

This is George's first fish, and he drew it for Malcolm. George is five.

	Daisy, age 5, drew this great picture of the trees, the turbine (right - complete with nacelle) and her on the swing. Lovely! October 2011.
Katerina - we're still feeding your robin! August 2011
	thanks for this lovely picture Ellie and Livvie - it was great having you here! August 2011
A striking resemblance I think - Anya's Daddy should be proud! September 10
	Katerina's update - with great bullrushes and some lovely sunshine. Aug 09.
	Fishing obviously caught Owen, Jessica and Chloe's attention. That's Dad -  Andy - hooking the whopper and Ian looking admiringly on...
	but there was time for more formal painting too.
	It's the dragonflies we like best in Katerina's picture of the pond outside Otter Cottage. And is that a moorhen by the edge? Beautiful picture.
Erin Ferguson made us this lovely card showing the smaller fishing pond, complete with bullrushes, bench, fishing rod and net and even a fish! Thanks Erin!
	Polly Cranham ought to be a textile designer when she grows up don't you think?! What a great picture!
This is George's first fish, and he drew it for Malcolm. George is five.
	Claire Rhodes, aged 8, drew this picture of a squirrel.
This really fabulous drawing was also by Claire - it's her friends playing computer games in the lodge. (I have to say they spent a lot of time outside on bikes too!) We think this girl has real talent! She's even captured their expressions.
	Holly Smith, aged 6, drew Lazy, one of our chickens. If you come to stay, you can help us collect the eggs too.
