Michigan Thread - all are welcome!

wow close call...........too bad you didn't have a bat, could have given that bird a home run across the beak... ahem.. not that I advocate causing harm to a hawk, such lovely creatures....  ;D


Lol! Naw...I don't want to commit a felony & join the "criminal chicken keeper" club (oooh, a new acronym, C2KC). :D

Hawk was back circling a little bit ago. She is really getting good at riding the thermals.

Came back in & had a text on my phone from neighbor "are the girls in their pen ? Hawk is circling ur house"! Asked her if she heard my scream earlier...she said "yea, heard a commotion, & expected 2 hear a gunshot next"!! :D
 
The goat photo made me grin.

I *think* my kids know I'm joking when I ask them to help me stuff baby goats into my purse when we are at petting zoos.

love the goat picture..

Glad you escaped the hawk.. be on the lookout..

well yesturday i put out my chippy trap.. today i am out in the chicken run, look over to see if anything is in the trap.. and its a baby oppossum.. second one in the past 2 weeks.. i relocated it far away in the forest.
was hoping its a chippy so i could have a offering to the hawks..
 
I've always wanted one of those! Doesn't it just beg to be made into an aviary?

I just this year got the roof on mine. I went 3 panels high because I have a pr of peas in mine. So you don't have the problems I did. If you get one, number the roof panels as you take them down and mark where the first one goes, it will make your life much easier. I love it. I still have to finish the hardware cloth around the bottom and want to put a nest or shelter 5' high. I've seen them go through the auction, but didn't check to see what they went for. For winter I will tarp around it. Good luck.
 


As I sit drinking the first coffee of the day I think about how fortunate I am to be awaiting the arrival of another sunrise. The news is filled with tragedy and sadness and closer to home I am reminded that none of us are immune.

Two nights ago the lights of both an ambulance and a fire truck lit the neighborhood as the stopped directly across the street. They soon left with the husband of a girl I had watched grow up. They were at her parent's house showing how their week old baby when he experienced an aneurysm. Yesterday the decision was made to take him off life support. So young, with so much of life awaiting him and it was gone in an instant.
