Bits of news

a.) Mom did not record the sad passing of the hen Alvina. She was egg-bound, we think. She laid those beautiful big greenish speckled eggs.
b.)Sad news for Ilze Bullwinkel, but happy for us: An opossum got into her chicken house and killed her good rooster. So she took Teddy!
c.) Hannah made Dean's list.
d.) Su and Grant are coming to visit this weekend.

Good news about Teddy!!

Yes, that is good news. It really changes my approach to the hen house. Maybe Teddy objected to my approaching the h.h. with Hello Ladies, how are you?

Ilze called this morning with an update on his adjustment to the much larger flock of chickens. He is learning his place.

Alvina's death was sad. She spent her last days in the mud room.

I liked True Grit, also...We saw it in the city.
We have a sad passing, also..our black kitty was gone when we returned from Redding. I miss him. Grey kitty is our only cat now. I feel so sorry for her since she has had over 18 years of snuggling with her sibs and she's all alone.
