Spring at last, new beginnings!

First: Big news! We got a trio of new chickens! They are young Buff Orpingtons, and we are going to slowly introduce them to our current ladies. I asked a vet I work with how one does this, and she said it was similar to introducing cats to each other, which was basically already our plan. Both flocks are in adjacent coops in view of each other. At some point we'll let them come into contact and then we'll integrate the two groups.


Alexis noticed this tulip sent its stem right through an insect-feeding hole in a dead oak leaf. Go, life, go!


The Virginia creeper is awake and ready to cause some trouble!
