    Is there someone coming with food? Love how they are all looking in the same direction! 🙂

    There certainly is. One of the helpers had lots of ginger nut biscuits, which the donkeys love! Thank you for your comment.

    It is a sanctuary, it's Redwings Horse Sanctuary in Norfolk. They have lots of donkeys, some mules and of course loads of horses. The sanctuary is open for visitors over the summer and we had a lovely day out there. I will post about it soon. Thanks for your comment!

    It is a sanctuary, it's Redwings in Norfolk. They have loads of residents and they do regular tractor/trailer rides around the paddocks for visitors, talking about the various characters who live there. We all got to throw ginger nuts to the donkeys – they love them! Thanks for your comment.

    Thanks we had a great day. Redwings have several sancturies and they care for horses, donkeys and mules of all ages, from babies to oldies. They do a fantastic job, taking in abandoned, neglected and mistreated animals, and they survive as do so many charities on donations. I really admire them and recommend a visit. Their website is http://www.redwings.org.uk and we visited the Caldecott centre in Norfolk. Thanks for your comment!

    Oh my, what a cute photo!!!

    I love long ears. We have one currently at the rescue I work with, an overweight spotted donkey named Marty. He is definitely everyone's favorite!

    cheers,

    Donkeys are so lovely. There's one there called Denise and she is the boss – I think she has been looked after by people since she was a baby so she sees herself as top of the tree. Thanks for your comment!

    I think they are all different ages, but there are lots of them, and a couple of mules too. They look so much like ponies, which really surprised me. Thanks for your comment Fiona!

    I know, there's just something about them isn't there, they are so cute. Thanks for your comment!

I live in the countryside with my dogs and cat, and I love horses, yoga and running (sometimes). Writing is what I do - I've tried other things, but keep coming back to it. And I'm learning to meditate.
