    She, He, or Too Early to Guess?

    Any Botanists Out There?

    The youngest chickies were out foraging for their third or fourth time when they decided to into some overgrowth from the woods behind our house. I tried to herd them back to a more open area, but they wouldn't budge. They'd discovered a rather large bush with little, round, red berries and were...
