Pruning the orchard

Ghost assisting with pruning in the orchard

This week, we finally got a break in the weather. So I undertook the pruning of the orchard this year whereas Alex had done it last year. The new feral kitty that adopted us this winter was very helpful. She loves climbing trees and mimics everything I do. She chewed the ends off branches and caught falling branches to stack in a pile. 

I have one more tree to prune. The daffodils are up, the native honey bees and bumbles are awake and loving the heather, the skies have been amazing. No complaints.
