Guess what we did this morning.


(Sadly, our own bushes have been a total bust this year. These are from Turkey Hill Farm in Haverhill.)

And then we went to Nevins Farm to look at the button quail (properly, coturnix quail).


Here's a gray one. They're really quite wee.


And of course we had to visit the chickenerie.

Some young hippie with a leghorn rooster.


Some old hippie with an Americauna pullet.


And the duck who couldn't be bothered to get up for anything.

we quite like our one leghorn. She's a mighty producer of large white eggs and not at all as flighty as we had been told she would be. Tomorrow I add 5 new ones to the coop, 3 more ameraucanas and 2 cochins
