I wonder what makes them shiny? How are they not all eaten by predators for standing out?

Here are a couple of articles about it.

What I wouldn’t do to be in a snowy log cabin with a little fireplace, hot chocolate, bundled up in some blankets..

Or is it “What I would do?” I always get confused.

What I wouldn't do is right.
What would I do is for Klondike bars.

So it’s a hiding in plain sight, strength in numbers kinda thing. Interesting little birds!

Everything’s locked up. I’m not feeling great anyway.

I have dreams sometimes that it's snowing. Then I wake up and I'm sad.

Good morning everyone! I was up until 2 am working on homework and it seems like that will be how I spend tonight as well.

Anyways! How about this for exciting? One of our 6 month old Cayuga's is..........dun dun dun......broody? She’s hissing at me and made herself a perfect little nest, and all of the eggs that are in the box are under her. We don’t have a drake so the eggs are infertile. Sweet Delilah isn’t acting so sweet right now.

Why do we get so many broody animals here?

I love the rain when the temp is really high! When it's cold... it's a totally different story. It's so dry here, it feels like the sun is grilling your skin. The rain makes it perfect!
