Yesterday was a rough day for me with wild life. The night before didn't get much sleep my hip was hurting really bad. That was do from climbing up and down the ladder while painting. So I tried to sleep in alittle. So Dew our farm dog wanted to go out at 7:30 I told him no wait a bit momma was tired. I fell back asleep @ 8 oclock something hit our front door hard its all glass well dew was sleeping inside on the same door . Then he starting barking and carrying on. I jump up out of bed let him out he jumped off the steps not even touching I don't think. And there sets a batam up on the hand rail on steps. I thought that is odd they never sit there.  So I went to grab my camera walk out on step he still stood there I took a picture he didn't move. So I went to pick him up thinking he was stuck.. Well he flew off and scared me about to death. So I think either a hawk came down trying to get him . Or a fox was after him..

Well thats my story and I'm sticking to it. lol The day before all this ,I took a few pictures of the chickens out for a walk.

Oh momma I don't want to get my feet wet.

I forgot to add Dew the farm dog protects our chicken he doesn't let anything hurt them if he can help it. If the chicken go to  far from the farm dew runs and barks get them back where they need to be. He is a great dog.

Well it was another fine day here in Maine.It got up in the high 40's but the wind was blowing..I looked out the window and the rooster decided to snack under the bird feeder. Our chickens have free range here on the farm. We have lost so much snow this past week do to warm temps. But bad news we have a snow coming in tomorrow.. thanks for stopping in..
