The Front Porch Swing

What kind of tree is that?!! Is that a laburnam tree?!! That is so beyond gorgeous.

Oh, sorry, your Dad is very nice looking too.

Yes, he's handsome, but if he's elderly,  and likes  his chicken buddies, I'd just leave him alone and let him enjoy the rest of his life.  

Yes, I'm of that mind, Linda. He must have lost his mate last year, which could have contributed to his giving up. And they don't necessarily take to a new mate, I know that. You run the risk of them hating each other, and then I would have to create two swan yards, two swan pens, two swan ponds! Arrrggghhhhh!

Those are golden chain. They are gorgeous for about a week every year. The sound of the bees in them is insane, so is the scent.

We keep the Delawares in there full time. Or we have since the turkeys left at Thanksgiving. It was a big space for just three birds. Now there are 14. Soon there will be two more hens and six or more chicks ... We'll keep all the Delawares in there until the cockerels cause problems.

Delaware babies and their mutt foster mom ...

Love this pic, LJ....love the lush grass, the blossoms in the tree, the wonderful shade and the handsome man standing there all proud and tall.

That's exactly what I thought! And the swan/dad thing was hysterical!
