that is a crazy weather shift.

As to the roo... I must say, best personality by far. This breed has been excellent. ZERO human aggression and very good with various sized chicks. Very low aggression with other chickens etc.

OK..snow pictures. ..don't think we got 20th feet this year.... but more than enough I say.

I grabbed my son's phone (The 18 year old...he got a phone for a year...gets turned off soon)...he had some great photos...

He was in Juneau, Alaska this summer as a volunteer tour guide for the small Othodox church.

So..Juneau glacier:

On Monday, when we had an actual sunny day! The yard between the house and the duck and chicken yards. Those two tractors are used for grow- outs and are now empty. Ducks usually do NOT get to free range.
