Getting the flock out of here - a diary of a crazy chicken man

I was at the range yesterday. Qualifications in handgun, shotgun, and night fire. I had an off-day, only shot 96 with my pistol, but the usual 100's in the other two........it's my job..........

I'll tell you this, though, I've never jumped of a bridge or cliff with rubberbands tied to my ankles, and I never will.

No- we were too young and poor to be into wine!

We did buy a car as one was offered for about the same price as a 1 week rental - should have figured there was something fishy...

it was a very old white (ish) Honda civic. We soon found that it used equal parts oil and gas

The worst of it was at with no particular warning it would accelerate uncontrollable, usually when stopping at one of those one lane bridge-over-canyon passes when a truck was coming straight at you, or going around some cliff-face road. It was a thing possessed.

We called it Psycho sheep - and for good reason.

Ahhh, the one lane bridges... One of my favorites was a two level bridge - trains on top, cars down below. I still recall when they added lights to control traffic. And cliff-face road, NZ has plenty of those without getting too far off the main road!
 
By tomorrow there will be 100,000 views of this thread.

Amazing.

So for you viewers - here are some more photos from this week.

The first group is quail corner. WE extended the roof on the egg house and built quail cages. They are on the leeward side and are well protected from winds.






The adult quail and growing Chukar are currently housed here.
