Today I am showing you the many different fences that I
saw in Donegal and at the end I have a video of the Pale bellied Brent Geese
that were feeding in a field. These are Black headed Gulls below.
Above are the Pale bellied Brent Geese so I cropped the shot so you could
see them although you will have a better view on the video at the end of
the post.
I loved the red wagon wheels outside these thatched cottages.
A lot of Donegal of the countryside is quite barren and only fit for sheep
to graze on so there are a lot of fences and dry stone walls all over this
county and also a lot of sheep.
I hope you enjoyed seeing a bit more of Donegal through
the ‘fences’ meme.
I am linking this post to GOOD FENCES.
Many thanks for visiting and also for those who leave
comments.
Love your fences, your birds, your critters - and particularly the wall in the third photo. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures Margaret.
ReplyDeleteMany different fences, the video I love.
Best regards, Irma
Great fences, fields and sheep! It's such an interesting area.
ReplyDeleteHello Margaret, I enjoyed this post of the cute sheep and cows, neat fences. The Gulls and geese are both pretty. Great photos and video. Have a happy day!
ReplyDeleteYou made me feel like I had gone to Donegal with you!
ReplyDeleteThe geese are so different from those around here. I love the sound on that video!! Nice fences and a good latch on that gate. With fences, drystone walls, and sheep, I would definitely like to visit that area someday. I enjoyed this post, Margaret.
ReplyDeleteI viewed these pics full screen Margaret, such detail. The thatched cottages are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteVery interesting fences. Really like the stone one.
ReplyDeleteGreat collection of different fences... most I like the stonewall in #3 and the first photo with the gulls.

ReplyDeletemighty good livestock fencing there! thanks for sharing these lovely scenes!
ReplyDeleteHi Margaret, such beautiful photos and views! I really like the fencing and the countryside!
ReplyDeleteMy goodness, so many awesome fences. I love the stone fence and the latch ... impressive. I also love the black sheep ... don't see those often, at least not around here. Great pictures, Margaret.
ReplyDeleteI haven't forgotten about the Video. I just am not very good at taking pictures with the screen as opposed to the viewfinder, so I am working on getting something that is good enough to even attempt to edit. Hopefully, it will be soon. I will keep you posted on my progress, then we can set up a time for you to share your vast knowledge. Be well, Margaret ...

A very nice collection of fences and I liked the sheep photos too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful place. I love the fences in all of these pictures. The sheep are super cute too. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeletenice choices for today, both the fences and the critters. i like the stone, with the wood!!!!
ReplyDeleteI like the stone fence … looks like it take a lot of effort to create it piece by piece.
ReplyDeleteOh, my goodness...this is the jackpot of fences. Too many to go into detail about, but love them all...love the sheep, LOVe the stone fence/wall...just love them all.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great collection of fences! The countryside is so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteLots of great fences here today. I loved that gate with the stone wall beside it. - I love the countryside here, so lush and green. I enjoyed all your photos today very much.
ReplyDeleteInteresting rock fence - it looks like the owner hasn't finished building it:) I kind of like the barren-ness of this landscape (as long as it's green:) ). My interest for sheep is because at one time I would like to make a sweater from beginning to end (bucket list)
ReplyDeleteA great variety of fences, and livestock. I really like the stone fence.
ReplyDeleteOh my, your pictures are wonderful. The stone wall and rocky terrain. The hilly walkways beyond the gate. The thatched roofs. This is my first visit to your blog and I'll be back.
ReplyDeleteLots of interesting fences in this post! I loved the scenery and, as always, your photos are so beautiful. Thanks for your comment, Margaret. I haven't had much time for blogging recently, so I'm happy to see I haven't lost everyone!
ReplyDeleteLots of fences in that shot with the tower in.
ReplyDeletepeter
It looks like a wonderful place! Love the fences and all the sheep!
ReplyDeleteYou have such remarkable views where you are. I really like that fence with the stones lines up every so nicely to create a nice wall! All great shots.
ReplyDeletebeautiful views and critters!
ReplyDeletePretty country, Margaret. Very relaxing.
ReplyDelete~
I loved the sound on the video. Looking at beautiful birds and listening to the sea make a great combination I think. They do have a lot of fences in Donegal, don't they? As Rose said, the jackpot of fences! I enjoyed seeing the countryside.
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures! I think the first one is my favorite, but I like seeing the sheep and other critters too.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous scenery and bird shots. Love those cows!
ReplyDeleteYou have got such a great selection here of fences, and still love those sheep
ReplyDeleteThe image with the cow leaning over the fence had me wondering how much resistance the fence could take if the cow gave it a shove.
ReplyDeletewow, that´s a lot of fences. Some with their own special look :)
