Ribh's D'Coopage

Between the rain & the days getting shorter it was still darkish when I opened up this morning.
This normally means the girls are just waking up & meander out in dribs & drabs still half asleep. Not this morning. As soon as the crack was wide enough Portia shot out like a bullet, straight across the lawn. Since the hawk's been about the girls have tended to be much more cautious about crossing open spaces but Portia was in a right old hurry. I followed her, curious to know what her issue was because everyone else was taking their time. She shot straight into the outside nest & was chatting away to herself sounding terribly relieved to have got there in time. She normally lays much later in the day so her clock is out or something.

Oh no! Poor Portia.

There's something a little humourous about it though. Why did the Benny Hill music come to mind?
