Wednesday was a bank holiday in France, and as well as a brocante there was also a foire taking place in Luzy, a little town close to us. A fair for plants, chicken and other small farm animals. Oh why couldn't the weather gods have been more understanding and kind? The weather was, errmmm, capricious, to put it nicely. Mostly grey, often raining, the occasional ray of sunshine, so that the stall holders at the brocante could lift the plastic covers once in a while. Of course I found a few things, but it just wasn't much fun trying to engage with the stall holders in the pouring rain.
But I did want to go and see the foire. I am so glad I did, the animals were so adorable!!! I could have taken the two little donkeys home with me, they were the cutest little darlings ever! -
It was very busy despite the rotten weather, so taking photographs was not easy. I fell in love with those gorgeous little fluff balls -
There were so many different birds to admire -
And my favourite of the fair, this most handsome cockerel, what a beautiful bird -

Oh I agree, that cockerel is gorgeous! What fine feathers! Those are sweet donkeys too. I am an armchair farmer and love animals. I would have loved to visit this fair.
It seems like you are having the same weather there as we are here. IT has been cloudy and raining mostly this spring. Which is not normal for us.
Hugs,
Terri

Herrliche Bilder wieder.
Geniesse diese schöne Zeit, Erinnerungen daran kann einem niemand nehmen.
Es ist so wichtig in Muße zu verweilen, und dem lieben Gott für alles dankbar sein.
Ich freue mich auch sehr, dass es endlich wärmer ist und alles grün wird und blüht.
Umarmung und liebe Grüße von Sophie
Love your pciture of the Foire! I have a "Kitty farm" this sporing, Did I tell you! right now there are only 7 sittens left. a few got sick and died and one bath we just never found wheree the Mama Kitty put them. We are trying to help a few get rid of eye infections. We think another ne of our girl cats is expecting. . . so Kitty Farm we may be this summer. one fall we havd literally 24 kitties! but many get killed by coyotes and vehicles on the road.
They do keep the mice down!
Oh my gosh Liz, they do have a lot of fair's their! We only have one very large one that goes for a week. Every kind of animal you can imagine.
The rooster looks a bit like my Miracle.
Doing some much needed catching up.
Hugs Lynn
I would enjoy a lark like this! Love your photos.
