We finally had a sunny day! It started off sunny and stayed sunny all day.
The chickens even ventured out. They usually just stay in the barn when there is snow on the ground.
They even came over to visit on the front porch.I hope they enjoyed their day out because we are supposed to get six inches of fresh snow tomorrow night.
My dad - early 1940s. I love that you can see my grandfather's shadow in the foreground. He always wore a hat.Happy Father's Day!
Every year we get new baby chicks and every year I love to watch them and try to photograph them.
Their little wing feathers grow so fast.
They are fun to watch when we let them out and they peck at the plants and bugs.
They are very wiggly and tricky to photograph. This one jumped right out of the picture to get a mosquito!
I left their cage outside for a while yesterday in the hopes that they would eat some mosquitoes but I don't think they made much of a dent in the population.
We had a beautiful "almost spring" afternoon, yesterday. I even went outside WITHOUT A COAT!P and I walked around the yard and found our FIRST flowers!
The chickens also enjoyed the warm sunny day.
They were soaking up some sun and pecking around. I gave them a pumpkin that I had been saving.
Cluck, cluck. I forgot how fun it can be to photograph the chickens.
We still have some snow
and lots of mud.
Still, it was a beautiful, blue sky, spring like day.
I guess I'm really not much of a winter person.
We got a call from the post office yesterday and hurried into town. We could hear the peeping as soon as we got through the door.
Twenty seven little chicks in a box.They enjoyed a bit of sunshine and fresh air.
Some of them even nibbled some clover flowers.
New chicks are always fun.
