Down the road, late afternoon.

A lazily whorling vortex of gulls is sharply, prettily white against the lively green of the pasture in the evening light.

The harsh, anaerobic odour of slurry tells me why.

This is a great post to begin on! It already tells me that yours isn't going to be the selective vision of a writer out for quaintly picturesque, pastoral vignettes. It occurs to me that your location in Brittany and situation as an expatriate might actually help by making you hyper-aware of potential cliches in writing and thinking.
