Waiting for The Mailman

When are those baby chicks we ordered going to arrive? We want them now! via

Handsome Rooster

He is gorgeous. I love to hear the crowing of a rooster in the distance. I recently met the one I can hear from my cottage. He's black and white. I've been eating fresh eggs for a week today. via

Chicken Hatches Ducklings

I wonder what happened to Hilda's eggs? I hope a duck sat on them. I love stories like this. via

Two Authentic Peeps

Peeking out from the coziest place in the world. The mother is beautiful, isn't she? via

Easter Greetings

Isn't this how the pyramids were built? Those two bunnies are very smart, knowing exactly how to move a giant egg. Happy Easter! via

Don't even think about getting close to the Easter chick. It's MINE to love and protect. Look closely, baby chick is under cat's nose. Found on Google images.

Free Range Chickens with Daffodils

My daffodils are just barely in the bud stage. Can't wait for the flowers. Don't you know these chickens produce delicious eggs?!! via

Please Close The Gate

And that's an order from this rooster in Wales. via

Mother Hen Keeping Watch

Is it safe to take the chicks outside? Mother hen ponders the situation. via

Barn Friends

They look pretty pleased to know one another, don't they? The log-cabin type structure is pretty amazing. I don't blame them for not wanting to get their hooves and feet in the snow.  via

Fat Chicken on A Stool

I love this big fat lazy chicken trying her best to cover the entire seat of a rusty stool. via

Puffy Protective Hen and Her Chicks

Happy Mother's Day to All Mother Hens

How dear is this picture? I love the peeking peep, don't you? This really is motherhood at its best!  via

Outbuilding with Chickens

I want to go inside and so do the chickens. via

One Rooster and Five Hens

These fowl friends were the best part of the open house tour yesterday. They were very excited to see me.

I photographed the rooster inside the barn last fall before this delightful property went on the market. It wasn't that long ago that the whole town looked like this with gardens and barns and farm animals ... but no more :(

Surprised Hen

Medieval Woman Feeding the Chickens

I love the woven chicken coop, don't you. I scanned this image from a datebook I no longer own. I keep discovering images I saved before I even had a blog. 

Follow the Rooster

Those girls are not about to let him get away, are they? via

The Chickens and The Underwear

This made me laugh. The shadows are much more graphic than the laundry hanging in the courtyard.

The Chicken Dance | Video

If these dancing chickens don't make you smile, I don't know what will :)

Something to Crow About - Tuesday iPhone Fotos

Who cares about looking at a house when there are barns and chickens? The rooster followed me from his coop into the barn and posed so nicely for me. I'm thrilled to have a new feathered friend.
