What is This!

Ron has a stereo in his barn that is housed in our old entertainment center.  Since I don't use it, I don't pay much attention to it, until the other day when I passed it and then noticed something different.Nestled between the two speakers was a huge pile of stuff that looked organized.  That's right, it is a nest.....talk about having noisy neighbors!

Here They Come!

I wish I had used my video to catch this but I always forget my camera can do videos......  Here are the chickens running across the pasture to see me as I walk towards the hen house.  Have you ever seen a chicken run?  Hilarious.  So awkward looking.

But today I didn't have a treat for them so they quickly lost interest in me and went back to looking for bugs and tender shoots.Silly chickens.

Golden Harvest

Oh how I love our bees!Look what they can do.....make loads of sweet honey!  And we tried something new this year.  To prevent fermetation we brought the honey to a temperature that killed the yeast (but not the good stuff) before bottling.  We got about 70 pounds and hope to get one more harvest later this summer!  Diana
