Egglet

The sixth chook has started laying (the brown mini-egg). They're the sweetest little things. In a few weeks they'll be up to size. It takes a bit of getting used to - laying an egg each morning. If the girls are out wandering first thing, she sometimes leaves it 'til the last minute and has to make an urgent dash across the garden back to the chook house. I imagine all the cackling is chook-speak for "Quick, an egg is coming!" Nice one chooky.

Winter Window





A few pics of a frosty winter morning. Gloves, beanie and scarf essential for morning walks - Molly still takes herself for swims in this sort of weather. Mad. Mmmm snuggly weather.
