Remember way back in the spring when I blogged about our new adorable little penguin chicks?Â Turns out I was wrong about them, and can let my zoo license lapse…at least for a few months.Â Those lovely babies have grown into gracious Black Copper Marns chickens.Â In this photo you see one of our roos,

Things Learned While Spying On the Cat

24JulySuzanne15 CommentsHome in the Rookery, Just for Laughs

Our daughter is very fond of dragonflies, so when the cat went after a big gorgeous blue one she grabbed Apricot (that’s kitty) and stuck her in a chicken cage while she carried the dragonfly off to our pond. I, of course,Â grabbed my camera and hid behind a tree.Â Past experience had shown me that

It really is lovely, don’t you think?Â My writing buddy and dear friend Laura gave one to each of us Cabinet members, and I for one am still laughing! It’s got a nicely aged look to it–appropriate for something that’s been plaguing writers since the dawn of time!Â It’s also inscribed with different words on

We were thrilled yesterday–seriously doingÂ a happy dance–when we caught our guineas laying their eggs out in the woods behind our pasture.Â They’d chosen a very nice spot, one we’d missed when doing egg search walkabouts.

It’s just too cold for lemonade!Â So what is a sensible person to do? If you’re a dog, you tear into a giant snow ball. If you’re aÂ guinea, youÂ fly into the highest tree and stay there. If you’re a girl, youÂ make a snowman with super-sonic spikey eyes. And if you’re me?Â Â You make hot chocolate! Happy

Having given birth to two kids, you’d think I’d know how to wait patiently and gracefullyÂ for baby’s arrival. Nope. Our first home-grown silkie chick pipped (broke the shell) yesterday morning around 6:00am, but then proceeded to do absolutely nothing.Â After many long hours of nothing–she rocked her egg a bit.Â Then she started peeping distressingly,

I think I do aÂ passable job of being the ‘normal’ kind of cool, most of the time.Â I’ve learned to temper my penchant for crazy outfits so I can appear professional withÂ an acceptable touch ofÂ creative.Â I mightÂ cut my own hair, but most people can’t tell.Â With a little restraint I can keep a conversation going
