oh what a beautiful day!
...as the song goes....
woke this morning again to sounds from our barnyard.
I love to hear my chickens & roosters ~ so peaceful to me!
speaking of roosters,
do you remember this little guy???
 |
| little Toby sleeping in my hand... |
remember I rescued him from being half-hatched & frozen to death last October?
 |
| Toby setting in a basket at a Stacy Nash class ~ |
remember too that I brought him in the farmhouse
....my sweet little Suzy mothered him for a bit??
 |
| are you my mudder? |
well, here he is today ~
bright eyed & rooster-tailed!!
 |
| hello big-boy! |
he has grown into a strapping young rooster-man...
his irridescent colors are amazing!
 |
| hi mom! |
here he is in his coop with his 'real' mother
(ssshhhh, don't tell him) ~
she's the one in the far-back with the brown head black body.
...along with his siblings, 2 sisters and one brother!
 |
| biggest one in the bunch ~ whoda thunk? |
and here is our camera-shy-guy...
"Billy"
(short for Williamsburg Blue)
 |
| oh you handsome boy! |
yes, we see you too!
Billy doesn't stand still for too long, and it is super hard to get a picture of his tail
since he's always moving and swishing-it around...
 |
| look at those eyes ~ and that crown!! |
his tail IS beautiful ~ and at almost 6 feet long it should be...
I will seriously try to sneek up on him and get some pictures of it for you...
in the meantime, this snap below shows more of his colors ~
 |
| love the black & white feathers he has, and the brown ones, and the striped ones, and..... |
and speaking of COLORS ~
