The signs are unmistakeable, the snow storms of winter have passed, the trees are all in bud, the feeders are full of colorful birds, and the chicken coop is full of fresh eggs! We put fresh chicken feed in the coop this morning and the little bird wouldn't come down from her roost, once she was shifted there was a pile of eggs as big as her. As you might imagine, the little light brown eggs are the work of the smaller hen and the bluish ones come from Henrietta, the bigger Araucana hen. Henrietta, by the way, is over 10 years old!
Also heralding the new season, Maggie's prized Camellia is in full bloom with beautiful white flowers.
Here's hoping you're all enjoying better weather and looking forward to the new season.
