If you have any kind of animal whether they are pets or livestock you can almost always determine by their behavior if something is coming or going to happen. Or maybe it's just plain old tired of being inside.
I believe animals can tell by changes in the weather if say a storm is on the horizon or say the season is changing as in spring is almost here!
Today was such a beautiful day here on the farm even if it only did reach 36 degrees. The sun is shining and you can almost feel spring in the air. Even our female alpacas were in a playful mood today. They couldn't wait until that barn door opened and they ate their breakfast to step outside and enjoy some of that sunshine!
Once that pasture gate was opened they had a spring in their step and danced out to have a grand frolic with lots of rubbing against trees, kicking up their heels from one end of the field to the other and of course rolling on the ground and just feeling good! Sunshine is a wonderful thing!
Wishing all of you a warm "Spring" in your step!
