This is the face I get when it is time to go out and feed everyone. This is Boo’s are-you-coming-now? Look.
Yesterday it was so cold and blowing hard out here. Wind is often hard to take a photo of in the winter but the chickens are helping out – showing their petticoats.

My lovely herd – still grazing in December. What a bonus for their health.
Tane is still looking for treasures (dropped corn) in the field and finding them too.
I hope you have a lovely day!

Oh that Boo! Like someone else said, you can see his muscles tense just ready to GO! I love your description of the chickens’ petticoats. Perfect word.
He is a muscly boy.. and the petticoats made me laugh – they do not like to be ruffled! c
I love the expression and concentration on Boo’s face. You can learn a lot watching the animals expressions and behaviour. Enjoy your day.
Yes, he is all ears! c
I must say your ground is flat.
I grew up on a beach with a huge view straight across the bay – it feels kind of familiar.. and yes – VERY flat! c
Your journey from NZ to IL must be an interesting story.
Yes it is! And a LONG one!
For my career as a science teacher, I grew up in western IL, went to school there, taught at 4 places in IL, and moved to IA to teach the rest of my career. I now live about 2 hours from where I grew up. Not very adventuresome, it appears.
Love your petticoats… Wonderful. And Boo – he’s such a good fellow and co-worker. So sweet how you made today’s presentation of everyone… Your pictures give me some peace.
That is wonderful – peace is wonderful.. c
Such dear happy animals. You are all lucky to have each other. I always get a warm feeling when I read your blog. All seems well with the world. Boo is darling. So insistent.
Dear and happy – yes.. c
Boo is such a wonderful dog! We have terrific winds here ( terrific meaning high blustry and extreme winds of up to 60 mph)……Have a warm cozy evening!
I think your winds are coming straight at me for the next few days.. c
Hot greetings from the Highlands: methinks I would rather have a peremptory looking Boo, the cold and the wind than today’s 40+ C temperatures and high winds here accompanied by the first ‘severe’ bushfire warning for the Season . . . it is great that the cows can still be outside to find food . . . even that extra bit of Vitamin D 🙂 !
You are SO hot! 40! awful.. c
Melbourne in February WILL be better, we promise 😀 !!
You can just see that eager anticipation on his face! And those fluffy ruffle chickens! Hah! Does Ton wait for you with as much enthusiasm as Boo?
Love those chickens – they look like ladies heading to the races in the spring winds!
Chook petticoats .. 😃
One knows the wind is blowing when feathers get ruffled! It does seem odd for the farmy to not be covered in snow this time of year.
