Solar Eclipse 2024 Coming April 8th!

[Everose]

That was very cool to see. Stayed home. Not on path of totality but got close to 90%. It got cold but not very dark.
My friends and I had fun hanging out and eating my eclipse pie.
Forecast was for full cloud cover but actually it was clear for much of the time.
I don’t have a fancy camera but got a couple of pictures to remember the event.
My chickens could not have been less interested - they stayed outside foraging the entire time.

Well, watching the news and the traffic issues we were supposed to have turned out to be a big fat nothing burger. Which is a good thing

I ate a lot of Oreo eclipse failures while finishing making the pie. In the end I also served a bowl of Oreo ‘bits’!

I wish I was so lucky. I didn't have traffic issues heading home from the eclipse but I left my house at 3:30 for a 5pm vet appointment (drive usually takes an hour) and was still late!

Rojo, our rooster, gathered up his girls and herded them up close to the coop but they did not go in. They just kind of hunkered down close to the run and seemed ... puzzled and a bit stressed. Confused, I guess. I imagined them thinking, How can it be bedtime, we have not had our bedtime snack yet? It was eerily quiet as the day birds stopped singing and calling, then the evening birds started their songs. My son thought it was really cool and impressive. I'm so glad he enjoyed it. We all did!

All my hens continued foraging until the sun reached its darkest point, then the big hens slowly trooped down the hill to the coop. The rest hid under a bush. After about ten minutes as the light increased they started going about their business again. They were definitely confused, though, both before and after!
