Suit yourself! (I don't allow red heads on my plane anyways) Kidding

I actually did live in Socal for several years...my work mates teased me for wearing gloves in "winter"
That coastal air is cold in the early morning!

P.S. You know very well redheads are welcome everywhere special breed we are!

Poo Sample Identified

Do you have any idea how creepy it is to follow a green hoping she will poo for you? I got a lot of dirty looks but I got the poo.

Spoiler: Poo

Too much hamburger in that, I'm thinking! But that's OK, My birds poop tuna, and pasta!

Eww
I've heard of stalkers in my time but really Bob, stalking a chicken that's new on me. We are never to old to learn

I felt like one.

The Names Are In

I promised you all where my warped mind had come up with the names for @Ribh vorwerks. Here we go. Be honest, how many did you get right?


Group 1 Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
• (Arthur) Dent
• (Ford) Prefect
• (Zaphod) Beeblebrox
• Trillian

Group 3. The sisterhood of the Traveling Pants
• Carmen
• Tibby
• Lena
• Bridget

Group 4. Little Women
• Meg
• Jo
• Beth
• Amy

Group 5. Not a Kurt Vonnegut novel. Nope. Something far more sinister.
When I think feathered foursomes I think......

Spoiler: These individuals

• Skipper
• Kowalski
• Rico
• Private

Group 6. This is a little off the wall. This is the one I was most proud of and what I thought might get the job done. Sadly I confused even @Ribh with my over cleverness.

• Burnt Norton
• East Coker
• The Dry Salvages
• Little Gidding

These are four poems written by T. S. Eliot (her favorite poet) that were published over a six-year period but are considered linked and are called the Four Quartets. Four Quartets are four interlinked poems that share a common theme: man's relationship with time, the universe, and the divine.

Group 7. These are the four dwarves that in Norse mythology hold up the heavenly dome, created from the skull of the jötunn Ymir. There names refer to the four directions.
• Austri. (East)
• Vestri. (West)
• Nordri. (North)
• Sudri. (South)

I got 3 groups right, but I'm still puzzled about why there's no group 2

Hattie Walking

The following video is of Hattie walking. I had gone to my chair under the magnolia tree and the Tribe had pursued me. All but Hattie. She waited on the deck steps until I called her. Here she is coming to the chair and eating some corn. Watch closely and then I will tell you what I see.

First clearly better than this morning. Her tail is up. She jogs a little. Much much better. She gets her beak in there and eats. She even shoulders Sansa away from the hand at the end. All way better than this morning.

What concerns me is a couple of things. First she did not just follow me like the rest of the tribe. Second, if you look close there is actually a little hitch in her gitty-up. Her stride is a little bit off. Third, when eating she never tolerates Sansa sharing the hand. She was way more patient than usual. Though she did shove Sansa away at the end and did eventually peck her later that was more tolerance than I normally see.

I am awaiting a poo sample to see what that looks like. Her comb is red and her eyes are clear. She is just off a little. Hopefully she is improving.

I noticed her gait was a little off and I'm wondering if she has a sore leg or foot.

All the birds are tucked in for the night. Only Emma was late to the coop, but she’s last in usually.
its like the “Waltons” around here. (Goodnight Beethoven-Hen, goodnight Hen-Rietta, goodnight Rocks-Anne, BLU, Jaffar, Bo-Peep. Emma, ..... ) and all the others. And goodnight my BYC friends!

In the post I said that those were the Vedas. No mystery there.
