Took my dog for a deep woods walk today (city park) - haven't done that in months. Saw a gorgeous Pileated Woodpecker and many beautiful wild flowers in the meadow attracting lots of bumblebees; haven't seen a bumblebee in years.
When I went out to clean my hen house today, there were five pullets and a cockerel in there. They are three months old today. The cockerel was tidbitting for the pullets. Well, mixed feelings. The cockerel is a BA. The pullets are mostly Ameraucanas. I need an Am cockerel!
