Our Light Brahma with her fancy feathered feet is named Joanne, after my friend with who has quite the collection of fancy shoes. Joanne the chick is a fan favorite around here. I call her my song bird. It's as if she's always quietly humming a favorite song: Tweet tweet! Tweet tweet!
She doesn't like to be caught, but she doesn't mind being held one bit once you do get around to catching her. She's just coming out of the uglies, and is still the last in the group to get feathers on her head...she's still sporting a wee bit of what I've been calling the blender look - as if she just came out of the blender with her feathers all whirled around and crazy like. That endears her even more to me.

And here is a fun moment I caught today with our Barred Rock. My daughter found the perfect perch for her feet while visiting with the chicks (excuse the black toe, says daughter!), and the Barred Rock found the perfect perch for HER own feet. Ha - I luv this bird. Such a crack up.
