moved to the big hoop

The girls graduated from the triangle to the big hoop today. So much easier to catch them when it was time to go in early.  

not Harriet.

Floofy chicken. We did not need more chickens this spring. But. Someone found Cream Legbar pullets, and I convinced him we needed 5, he also picked up a couple floors. He has named this one... but I can't remember what name it was. She looks like a Harriet to me. But that's not what he called her.... so this is not Harriet

Bug butt light trails. 

very berry berry

Sunlit, but not sun ripened, yet.

some days motherhood is...

Rough. Just so exhausting. 

farm math

Pick-up + chain + tractor= 10mph 

egg rainbow

The new chicks should lay blue eggs, that will be a nice addition to the green and brown eggs. 

Turd Ferguson

He's all about telling the whole world how he has found some great snacks for the girls to eat. Great snacks that I just fed them. Whatever,  poser.

mama kitty

..is judging you.... and me.....

Mulberries

Every year the husband waits until this invasive tasty beast bear fruit to decide to cut it down, but it's free snacks! For me and the chickens. 

And I'm sure Peggy needs snacks.

more blooms

white flowers

After the burst of violets, tulips and lilacs it seems like all the white flowers bloom at once. 

all the flowers

I can't take credit for the flowers in our yard, as I have planted none of them. But every year I'm treated to a bevy of blooms. Some wild, some domesticated.
