These sturdy horses has no covers on. But they don´t need it. They have warm coats of there own. Especially the last one. It looks almost curly. The door to the barn stays open so they can go inside for cover if needed.  One of them are eating from the fir, something I have not seen before.

Cattle and sheep

I woke up and headed out earlier then I usually do. As I was passing this stall/barn I noticed the cattle lined up. So I stopped to take some shots. I was flooded with childhood memories from my grandparents farm. Most mornings they did not have to go out to get the cows. The cows was already at the stall waiting to be milked. Like the ones in the images. Waiting for the farmer to release them from the weight of the milk. 

In a pasture behind the barn some cool colored sheep were grazing.

This is the largest barn / stall at Klastorp. Taking a closer look at them it made me feel a bit uncomfortable. The cattle in these images are kept in those small enclosures. Not free to be in a pasture. There are cattle in both the white and green "shelters".

The old barn

This is the old barn I shared a few older images of a couple of weeks ago. I went there to check it out. It is still standing, but barely. It is supported on the back side to  prevent it from falling. But from what I can see now it will not last another winter. Some heavy snow and the roof is gone. Last winter we had almost no snow at all yet some holes are formed in the roof. 
I thought last shot would look great as art so it is manipulated.

These barns belongs to one of the largest Mansions outside my town. They are built in a style mostly used in the southern part of Sweden, Skåne. Mostly called Timber framing.

The first two images is new. What they are used for today, other then to have a party, I don´t know. 
From the closeup I can see that one has been used as a stable for horses. 

The last image is taken long ago on the other side of the road.So, there are 4 of those barns. Used for different things I believe. The last one seem to be machinery and hay.

This old barn is no longer in use. They have closed all entrances so I can´t peek in and see what is there. But I think it was a stall for cattle. This summer I noticed it really started to fall apart. There are holes in the roof. 

There is a family of greylag goose at the end of the path :)
