Snowy Saturday......

We've been having a small stretch of snowy days....and while we have nowhere near the amount that much of the US is under...it's still enough to change the scenery.


My waterfowl and their pet turkette don't appear too happy about the whole idea...





though at least they have a small section of the pond that is not frozen...



Donald.....with Huey, Dewey and Louise (yes, one of the runner ducks is a girl). :)

The barnyard bunch were making the best of it. The goaties and Max say "as long as there's hay were happy."

The guardian dogs don't seem to have much of an opinion about the whole thing...other than wishing I wouldn't try to take their picture.

Couple of close-ups of Degerli and Suti with their dusting of snow....

Haven't seen much of the kitties...other than a pretty miserable looking Hooch...wondering what the heck we were all out doing in the snow.
The rest of the pack loves the snow, and other than my camera seizing up in the cold, and my lack of being able to catch many action shots of Kylie, I think you can tell how much they are enjoying themselves....:)

A Fine Fall Day

Gallo has found a new home with a flock of girls to call his own. He leaves today. I decided to get a couple last pics of him and the ram lambs I still have for sale, as well as some of Dulcie now that she doesn't have to wear her "bug armor".

I have to say that the lighting that clouds bring makes for some gorgeous colors, and the crispness in the air makes for some perky animals. :)

The Serama trio were out looking for some tasty morsels, they get real excited when I turn over any pans that have been sitting there for awhile....I kind of feel bad for the earthworms though....

The ducks, being Call Ducks, follow me around and loudly insist on me feeding them. Trying to explain that I was only out to take pictures didn't seem to console them much.....

Anytime the ducks mention food, the peacocks show up.......
FOOD? Did someone mention food???Dulcie, being the more camera shy, was the loser in this race.....:)

Once the hay is down, everyone is all business....
One last pic of Gallo.....
"HEY LADY! knock it off with the camera already!!!"

Two of my four Shetland ram lambs remaining still looking for a home.....

I'll finish this post with some shots of Dulcie enjoying the morning......

With a peep, peep here and a peep, peep there....

My little Serama girls managed to hatch out some little ones. They didn't hatch any of the quail eggs out but I'll forgive them. The little chicks they did hatch out were pretty darn cute. :)


Ahhhh....that sun feels SOOO goooddd!!!





Even though this pic is a bit blurry, you can see the upright posture even in the chicks!

















Though daddy Serama roo was kind of a pain in the butt when the hens were setting on their eggs, he has turned into a protective daddy and chased a curious Call duck away from the chicks.....


Hey! What are those fuzzy little things???


Geez! OK already I wasn't trying to get THAT close!


A gal can't even be friendly these days!!
