They are the craziest birds, flapping their wings, bare skin showing all over playing in the snow 10 below zero laughing at me bundled up in a carhart freezing out feeding them ... Lol.
I don't know how they do it but I even tested them one yr when I first got them, really just had too many and wanted separate breeding groups. Had one bunch just in a dog kennel with tarps wrapped around and on top, one completely open side and they had zero frostbite and no probs thrived even with the wind and snow blowing in. I had Jersey Giants also and they would stay inside while the NN were out pushing snow lol.

That's too funny. Thanks for the info, @Beer can ! Maybe one of these days I'll try them.

These birds are just stunning to look at. If I had the space for a second chicken keeping setup, I'd get something like that.

Took me ten years to find them. Not even hatching eggs on Ebay at any price.

Thanks for the fresh pot!

You were out watering plants in the middle of the night?! That's great!

I've suffered insomnia for years and I can't stand just laying there not being able to sleep. One night I decided to wire up the receptacle for the dryer down in the basement, of course using Fabio's much maligned power driver to set the screws on the terminals and put the cover on the electric box. I still had my ear plugs in when I looked up to find DH sitting on the top steps watching me. I demurely asked "You didn't hear me down here, right? You got up for a drink of water and then heard me right?" He just smiled at me, shook his head and went back to bed. Oops.

I have to quit working in the workshop at 11pm because hubby is going to bed. Temp. is lovely at that hour.

It's been much cooler here today. Mid day was around 75F which is pleasant. I think another storm is on its way judging by the clouds over the ridge and the distant rumbling.

I did lawn work, sweeping and washed two cars. I also helped the DW change wiper blades.

It would up being 152 active minutes! I stopped at 11:15 when it got hot.

It was almost too much for an old man like me....

You aren't old until you hit 80 I heard.

There is a Catalan man who lives at the end of the track that leads to the nearest village.
He has a vegetable garden by the side of the track. It's quite a big plot, about one quarter of an acre. Johan (the mans name) loves his vegetable garden. He supplies most his extended family with vegetables and beans throughout the growing seasons.
He's out there every day until about 11am and back again most evenings.
He does have a rotovator, but most of the work he does with traditional hand tools. He's out there every day bent over, planting, weeding, watering, making frames for the climbers e,t,c. He told me he was 81 this year.
