First up today we have the return of the Ride's sign, now in 3D.
From the other direction... yup definitely 3D!
The Station is now once again filled with water, let's have a tour of the ride as it stands today...
Work has progressed on the bee hive scene. Flowers have now appeared...
... as have the bees themselves, which bob up and down in the breeze.
Also note the equipment around the track currently covered in black plastic.
Some patented fence shots now...
...if you look very carefully through the holes in the fence you can just about see the cow scene on the far side.
Next along is the duck pond, where the lily pads are now on the pond, and frogs have appeared on them.
Over the hill you can see those chimney pots seen on the 11th. They are now part of the rabbit burrow scene.
On to the sheep fields now, and what's this... a new addition?
That's right... a giant black and white kangaroo in a shed... or maybe a donkey... you decide!
The chickens have arrived and are looking rather marvellous.
Onto the pig scene, and a new pig has arrived in the shed in the background.
The mole has moved to it's new home by the last sign, again notice the black bag.
The cat and mouse have found a new home by Old MacDonald's Singing Barn
At the end of the ride just before the boats return to the station.
Aww... Bless!
And what's that in the field by the ride's exit?
A solitary bull?
It looks a little angry... perhaps best to leave it there for today.

In the sheep paddock we can see a sensor; around the rest of the tracks these are wrapped in black plastic.
Also we can see that the empty shed now has a closed door, is this destined to be home to another animal?
As we're here, let's have another look at the chicken sheds.
Not much has changed at the duck pond, unlike the paddocks beyond, which are becoming
The Dung Heap
.
Down by the ride station the new bull has now moved to a new home alongside the ride channel. It also has a new friend.
Here we can see the latest addition to the ride; after all what farm would be complete without a horse?
Is it just me or does it look a little worried? It makes you wonder what the bull's been up to.
Finally today let's take another look at the cat and mouse near the singing barn.
It looks like it's going to be a good year for the Riverbank Eye-Spy
