Do watermarks count as editing / captions? If so, I do have the original of this without the watermark somewhere and I can replace this entry with it. I just have to do some digging and find it. This is Rowena the bantam Cochin, channeling her inner snow plow this past January:

"...her inner snow plow..."

I'm going to have to show this to my flock. They don't want to touch the white stuff, let alone, snow plow through it!

Yeah, I have no idea what got into her! Most of the time, my girls are the same. On this occasion, one of my other hens came FLYING out of the coop without paying any attention to her surroundings and landed in the snow, just freezing there like she was in quicksand. Well, Rowena (to the rescue!) decided to plow a path right out to her and back for no apparent reason! Knowing Rowena, it probably had more to do with her being jealous of me giving the other hen attention rather than 'rescuing' the other hen.

My granddaughter’s Easter Egger, Agatha, out for a stroll on a balmy 9 degree Wyoming morning.

You can tell she's a WY chick...no coat and barefoot

And not even shivering!

Attlia-the hen, is the first to venture out while some of the others watch to see what happens...
