...is like a day without sunshine! (And no, Willie, Chef Nick and HWB, I don't mean a day without EATING chickens! GEEZ!)
Yesterday I thought I'd start cleaning up the flower beds. The chickens thought they'd help...
That can't be good for the perennials!
Meanwhile, somebody went off and got covered in mud (no, not Gordon!) and needed a hose-down before going inside.

Yesterday I saw Henrietta tearing around the yard with something large in her beak, with another chicken in hot, jealous pursuit. I finally managed to get a look at what she had and it wasn't pretty. It bore a suspicious to resemblance to a flayed frog or toad, well-shredded by a certain beak but with limbs intact, flailing in the wind. I think it is a bit early for the amphibians to be out, so I'm wondering if Henrietta excavated the poor soul from its winter resting place below the surface of the soil. Regardless, that frog is no more!
Henrietta says, "Mmmmm, protein!"

Dear Evil Willie,
ReplyDeleteI am sure you meant by our comment "Chickens dressed in pretty Easter outfits" and by "tasty" you meant "attractive to look at", not "attractive to eat."
You. Are. BAD!!!!
