Winterlude

Finally, it looks like the season we are suppose to be in. Today was a picture perfect day outside. After I cleaned the chicken coop I walked around in the backyard and here is what I saw :



Three curious ladies - Anysie, Aimée and Antoinette








We've had cold temps the past couple of weeks and with the windchill factor it always feels a little more crisp doesn't it. I love snow ! A nice covering of snow makes everything so quiet and peaceful. The chickens were happy to have a clean coop and especially happy to spend some time outside taking in fresh air. They must be happy because they are still laying each an egg per day.


It's been pretty quiet around here since Christmas. Seems this time of year is slower for us; we go into a sort of hibernation.

It looks lovely. It was -18C here this morning...brrrr! But they're saying we're supposed to get rain tomorrow and +10. Crazy weather!

Lovely photos, and it looks like all the snow will melt today. Can't wait to return.

I want to have chickens too. Can't in the city. I keep thinking of setting up a secret coop. Only want three chickens.
