Daylight savings time starts tonight. More light in the morning but it will be dark before I get home.
My body still can't figure out what time it is... got back from the other side of the world (literally... India, 12.5 hours ahead) last week, and now we have to go and change the clocks!

I'm just a baby--three days after Christmas, 1973.
alrighty
July 1974
ok so maybe i'm the baby here then.. late 1975. I got the chicken "fever" when i was young. At my grandma's she taught me how to put baby chicks under a hen late at night. She said to make sure it's close to the 21 days. We would go to the feed store and pick out chicks every year. I loved those birds and STILL have the 8-9 rolls of pics i took of them with my parents camera as a kid. Oh, the trouble I got into when my parents developed the film and it was ALL chickens, lol! Got my first incubator when I was about 12. My parents promised whatever I hatched I could keep, not thinking it would work. But it did! Took some time away and got them again in my early 20's. I would call my grandma with all my chicken questions, and I miss her dearly. She said I was the only one who turned out like her and loved animals. That's my story
I'm starting to feel like we need to find the youngest person here, and see what the age spread is... I didn't think I was in the young category, but so far I've got you all beat with a spring 1976 birthday.
I got baby chickens for my 37th birthday! My grandma is happy I've finally found something to do that she approves of... she definitely isn't happy about the rock climbing or the motorcycle, and is only ok with some of the dancing.
Hello Ron,
Today, one of the HRIRs I got from you laid her first egg, and wanted you to see it. I was surprised as to it's deep dark colour, and large size. The two light colour eggs are from my LF adult hens. I took the photos in two different light settings to capture it's beauty; such a lovely gift!

Such a colorful basket!
It's a little strange to see a hummingbird without its wings going! We had a hummingbird nest over our balcony a few years ago. It was tiny, and there were two babies! We didn't go outside to see them though, because we were worried we'd scare them or the parents away. We'd just watch them through the sliding glass door, which got dirtier as a number of hummingbirds concentrated their droppings in one place...
