Maybe Peanut decided she wants a bit of snuggle time

Tired!

No sooner did I get in to work, finished my meeting, and had to jump into the truck and drive to Peace River to drop off water samples.... figured while I was there I would pick up a few things at Walmart - have to keep the economy going!!

AND! I will have a surprise to post later on (oh I hope the photos came out ok )

Oh and there is a Cutest Couple contest on BYC - go to the home page to see how to post your photos of your lovey dovey pictures

It's a laurel tree and yes, an evergreen. It's a life savior shelter for my chickens, only the goshawk goes inside to get them out. It's a Mediterranean tree but can handle zone 8. Ours is a bit out of control .

I'm getting more evergreens. I'm realizing one of the reasons why we have so many raptors attack in winter is that the land is so bare.

I think she looks just perfect.
But I wonder how she will react if Elie and Babs start to lay before she has.

Hmmm - I bet Bernie would be ok with that - if she is going to be Queen then she will be ok with it hahaha.

What is up with that roo!
I get mixed signals from my rooster buddy. Was he going to attack me or waiting for me to pick him up? Well there was no attack, so I picked him up, took him inside and let him fall asleep on my chest. (I think that’s what he wanted in the first place) it’s tough for a little guy like him to manage those seven ladies all day!

(I can’t manage any)!

Prairie Chickens

This very rare and cold hardy breed, is very self sufficient, they lay speckled eggs, and tend to extremely broody - in the Spring.

Rebecca - they even have feathered feet

Spoiler: Feathered Feet also!

OK everyone - I am tired and have a headache / eyes ache (I think I got some snowburn from the glare from the sun on the snow).

Hope you liked my Prairie Chickens

Doesn't Marty look like them?!

They are very cute - but why do they hang out on the road like that?
