Harriet Tries Again


She's nothing if not not determined! Harriet made a second attempt at escape today.  She met with similar results as yesterday.
Can I squeeze through that gate?


We continue to be perplexed, none more so than Harriet.

 "I sing prettily for them, I give them an egg every day, the least they could do is keep this "thing" from nipping at my tush. Wouldn't you think?"

Nothing new on the trail cam, no new injuries, our isolated hen continues in good spirits and varying levels of healing....the sillies continue to peck at each other's tushes. We may try to catch them all and paint their tushes purple....hadn't thought of that before. As long as there is no open would that should be fine. Right?

Benny Day

We were in town on Tuesday and unable to watch Benny.  Arielle agreed to let us have him today, so he would only have to go to work with her two days in a row.  He likes the little girls - but too much of a good thing is simply too much. LOL 

We discovered even Benny likes reading Kenneth Boa. 

Nolan had the day off and Benny seemed to know he was still in his room.

He's always happy to help us with laundry. 
Bennett with Uncle Alex


This is one of Benny's new looks. He flashes it whenever he see ones of us...like he's so very surprised to see there are people living upstairs. LOL 

She Came Back

She came to visit again, the moose with a pretty red collar! This simple fence is doing a better job than the electric garden fence. Inside the fence is our baby orchard...still safe.


I wondered where her sidekick was - and there she is across the road in the  brush.
