Only good pics I have are of the yard. and it dont move. The chicks you do look posed . Like you put them in the exact spot they need to be in with a perfect backdrop. and dared them to move.

I usually take upwards of 200 pictures in a session & get maybe 10 non-blurry ones. It isn't magic, lol. The best pictures are usually snapped in the first 3 seconds of them being placed on the backdrop, whilst they're still taking in the scenery... after that, good luck, eh.

Some photos of the newest chicks:









These Leghorns are so gawky it's adorable.

Don't know how I missed this. Thanks for sharing your interview with us, Banty.

Lewis, congratulations on getting married and completing your degree!

It sounds like you're getting to travel a lot around Europe and seeing some really interesting things. Do you by any chance a picture of the flamingos in Spain?

Thank you for sharing what you've been up to, I hope you'll continue to share pictures of the birds you are seeing on your travels!

Thank you for your kind comments. Yes, I do have photos of the flamingos, but I am afraid they may be a smidge disappointing.

Photography from a moving car is not my strong suit.

Congratulations on your marriage! That’s quite a move, I hope you’re able to settle soon and get back to chickens.

Thank you! I hope so too, breakfast is just not the same without fresh eggs.

How cool is that to see them in the wild! Thank you for sharing a picture, it's not disappointing at all.
