Rather than adding to already burgeoning haul of chocolate easter eggs and bilbies, Simeon and Graeme kindly bought us two new chooks and they also bought one for themselves but have left us to foster parent it. Of course we needed to celebrate the arrival of the three girls in style so we poured out some sparkling wine. Here am I pouring out aforesaid sparkling wine into Vivienne's glass while Jen eagerly (some might say, too eagerly) looks on.
It was a delicate operation to liberate the girls...
especially after I had been a tad over-exuberant in wanting to 'christen' the box they had travelled in with the wine bottle...ouch....(lucky that cardboard was tough)
and here's the first of the girls about to be released into their new home, yes we now have two little black hens
and this is Girtie, in a rather un-lady-like position. She also haas no tail feathers to speak of. But a nice bird, nevertheless.
