[TomTitTot in reply to Blackbird9]

A puddle of piggies.

You live in the loveliest of places; and your photos; you have such a good eye. What sort of camera do you use?

[Blackbird9 in reply to TomTitTot]

I have 3 Nikons ...at the moment im using a Nikon Zfc its very new so just getting used to it ..

Originally Scottish im now in the next best place 🥰

[TomTitTot in reply to Blackbird9]

Thank you.

My mother’s family was originally from Tain. The skirling of the pipes…

[Blackbird9 in reply to TomTitTot]

Im from Glasgow but been South 40 years have family in Dunoon and Glasgow still..

We are worldwide really Oz NZ we are a family of 8 girls and 5 boys 🙈

[TomTitTot in reply to Blackbird9]

I’m from a family of two and two. I’m the youngest girl, although being 68, probably wouldn’t qualify as young 😏

I’ve not been back to Scotland in nearly thirty years. My lungs keep me grounded so now I’m an armchair traveler.

Sending you and Stan good thoughts!

🐾🕊

[Blackbird9 in reply to TomTitTot]

Im in the same position as yourself the youngest and at 65 im still called the baby ...

Thankyou so much Stan will be looked after 💜

[sassy59]

[Blackbird9 in reply to sassy59]

The noise they were making was awful fighting over a space in the middle for heat 🥰

[sassy59 in reply to Blackbird9]

[Caspiana]

Oh how lovely. It never occured to me that pigs like to nap. Never even thought about it. Thanks for this beautiful photo BB. xx ❤️

[Blackbird9 in reply to Caspiana]

Oh yes they sleep snore away when huddled together ❤️

[illawarra]

They look so comfy in the shade of the tree Blackbird9 Great pic and woderful tree.💕

[Blackbird9 in reply to illawarra]

Its a beautiful old tree some branches have given way in the storms 💜

[Threecats]

Great shot Bb, framed by the fallen tree. It’s lovely to see them free to roam in the forest like that, just doing their thing x

[Blackbird9 in reply to Threecats]

After pannage not so good sadly 😢

[Photoschnau]

What a super photo! Love the framing of the branches on the napping pigs … I can imagine the squealing .. 🎧

[Blackbird9 in reply to Photoschnau]

They make an awful noise 😂

[Greenthorn]

One your best compositions. A sight most of us would be unlikely to ever see. Did you wear camouflage? 🐷

.

[Blackbird9 in reply to Greenthorn]

No lovley the pigs are free roaming during pannage season which last around 70 days ..its where they pick up acorns and nuts as they are harmful to the ponies 🥰

[Cloudancer in reply to Blackbird9]

I didnt know that!

[Blackbird9 in reply to Cloudancer]

We learn something every day .. its weird but true ..they also only allow pigs with rings in their snouts to help with digging them out ... if the pigs dont have rings they can really do some snout damage 🥰

[Cloudancer in reply to Blackbird9]

Ouch x

[Mooka]

[Stratos20]

[Blackbird9 in reply to Stratos20]

I am a veggy when i choose to be 😂

[Thepainterswife in reply to Blackbird9]

I am all the time , the older I get the more I love all animals and the more wary I am of all humans😂 x

[Blackbird9 in reply to Thepainterswife]

Im 80 % of the way there .. im a doggy person very insular around people 😂

[Blackbird9 in reply to Blackbird9]

[Cloudancer]

They look so content x

[Blackbird9 in reply to Cloudancer]

Until they are awake 😂

[Blackbird9]

Aww thankyou so much thats very appreciated ☺️

[dunnellon]

Awesome photo BB9! I can almost hear the squealing! I wish someone could put rings in our wild pigs' noses. The boar and pigs plow through our yards and woods like a rototiller! Uproot the shrubs and flowers and leave deep ruts to twist your ankles in. Those piglets look cute and I think it's great they have an essential job to do. The ones around here are self-employed and work a year round schedule.😬

[Blackbird9 in reply to dunnellon]

Thankyou ... these ones arent wild they are owned and allowed on the forest for pannage ... then when they are big and rounded up some go home others go elsewhere 😪

[dunnellon]

😔

[Jaybird19]

Love that picture. ! Where was mum ?

[Blackbird9 in reply to Jaybird19]

They are on each side of the babies 🥰

[SORRELHIPPO]

[Blackbird9 in reply to SORRELHIPPO]

Hope you enjoyed it 😊

[SORRELHIPPO in reply to Blackbird9]

Mmmmmmm

[Jane2005]

Awww look at those cute little piglets 🥰

[Blackbird9 in reply to Jane2005]

They are just gorgeous 😍

[lilypickle1]

I just LOVE piggies! Went on a walk months ago and came across a whole load of them in a field, spotted ones and allsorts. I couldve just stayed there for the rest of the day.

[Blackbird9 in reply to lilypickle1]

Im a fan of them to 🧡
