On the Sixth Day of Christmas








On the sixth day of Christmas,
My true love sent to me
Six geese a-laying

One cheeky goose,
No golden rings,
No calling birds,
No French hens,
No turtle doves,

But a partridge in a pear tree
Eight wooly pigs in a straw heap!

Goose and Wooly Pigs

  1. My goodness...wooly pigs!! This is something new for me. Very interesting, are they a Swiss breed? The goose is positively looking distainful and seems quite opinionated. The stooks are nice to see: been some time for me since I have seen them.

    Very grand collection of wonderful photos, Merisi.

  4. This straw is amazing. And those wooly pigs...hysterical. Good luck with the search!
