An early morning thanks to our rooster

We live near a bird sanctuary . We are fortunate enough to live near the land of the early bird risers. The birds from the sanctuary leave in their flocks and fly over our house past the orchard.. In their haste to set off somewhere, they all seem to wake up the neighborhood with their loud calls. We too have a rooster that feels he has to be louder than the wild ducks and ibis's. So, we found ourselves up really early going on our morning walk today. We passed the orchard and ended up starting our breakfast at this heavily laden plum tree. We then stopped by the chicken coop and found some fresh eggs... coffee, plums, egg and toast. Nothing beats a breakfast like todays.
A happy weekend to all

New Life in the meadow

New life is bursting everywhere down in our meadow. Our hands are fill with love as we gently hold our new Angora bunnies.(All 17!). I do not think that you could experience anything more soft and cuddly. Little Noodle the Poodle is growing in leaps and bounds. She really is a gorgeous little puppy and has us in stitches most of the time..Our Farmyard boy just loves his chickens and especially loves to feed and collect the morning eggs. The baby silky chicks are running around as if they own the farmyard. Our orchard tree branches are bending carrying all their off spring. It truly is a thriving little place.

A happy weekend to you all

New life down in the meadow

I have been itching to post that our Silky chickens have been sitting on eggs for the last 21 or so days and too our surprise, have hatched and are still hatching little gorgeous chicks. Andrew was doubtful as to whether they would sit and be responsible being their first laying.....As I kept saying..A Mama is a Mama is a Mama.

Yes Tammy (from Laugh,live, learn and love), these are the same little ones that made your day earlier this year.

Our new Chickens

They are here. The cutest little white fluffy feet chickens. We want to name them like we have all our other chickens. I can't wait to see what they name them...

My Girls

My girls getting ready to go. Wow, I get so attached to all my animals. They look just about ready to break outta there.....
