Please excuse Alice's dirty bottom.
 
Well no big bird overhead is good news unless it's a raven, crow or turkey vulture, black vulture. Oh okay, a Pileated Woodpecker is big, include that. Everybody else is a threat. So you could just work it from that perspective, if you want. But anything big overhead they should be afraid of anyway!
Yes I do! But I have loads of turkey vultures and I think I often mistakenly worry when it is them. I know them when they land, it is in flight I struggle. I know crows just fine ‘cos of how they fly.
 
Tegan’s Adventures

So Tegan’s had a big week. I didn’t mention it at the time but last week she had a trip to the vet. She was making this really weird wheezing noise and after what happened to Charlie, I thought it prudent we had a vet visit. I was delighted to hear that Dr Nikki was back for a few shifts, so we went and saw her. She checked her out and said she couldn’t see or hear anything out of the ordinary, her breathing sounded clear. So home we came and she was very pleased to be let out.

She seems back to normal, and of course she’s gone broody again. :he

And while geese are big too, they aren't a threat to the chickens, and make so much noise flying and fly in such distinct formations, I can't see @RoyalChick NOT being able to id those.
 
We had a shockingly warm day with no rain.
Got the plastic up around the run and everything cleaned. Planned some of the expansion for inside the run for more hang out spots and safe exits for future babies. 🤞
I look forward to seeing your improvements. 👍
