Clucks

The pileated woodpeckers   are back. Don't they sound like chickens?

Which reminds me, I don't think I've mentioned it but I am buying fresh eggs from a neighbor. They are so delicious, and I have the satisfaction of knowing the hens are well-cared for. Her daughter performs all the chickenly duties including the gathering of the eggs. They have a wire enclosed coop, big enough to roam around and always clean every time I have been there. And they are so cute...love it. When they started, they left the top open, but, you know, chickens can fly (a short distance)...and they escaped a few times. So they had to put wire over the top too. It was cute to see them, though, clucking along together, pecking in the grass, enjoying their freedom.

until next time...c
