Looked out yesterday morning to see this doe out back. She later walked off to the brush/burn pile, we assume the twins were there as we have seen her leave them there several times previously.

Early morning Doe

The Fox
A Fox out back.
Jarrod said that he'd seen a fox several times a week coming in early morning from work. Finally saw it the other day out in the back field. We'll have to keep a better eye on the chickens...

In the shadow of the apple tree
The Doe
. In the shadow of the apple tree, an apple planted last year that the deer have nearly killed this year, it's broken limbs hanging broken. She stopped to nibble at a treat block in the field, the Crows and Ravens stop in frequently during the day too.

I spotted the "grey faced red" mom out around 8:30am this morning,
the mosquitoes in the woods must be bad with all the rain we've been having.
She ran up to one of the fawns then within a minute she had two running up beside her.
Had to keep putting breakfast down (cold toast again...) to pick up my camera to get these pics...
One of the fawns is a good listener, the other strays off on his own quite often.

Cleaning the Beans
Jason and James helped clean
all of the Yellow Wax Beans this morning.
They were great helpers!
Apple Blossoms & Orioles
The apple Blossoms are nearly gone now, the Orioles will be leaving too. Grass is getting tall too almost 18" in the field.

The chicks arrived on Saturday
The chicks arrived on Saturday, 
we had one runt that was a bit shaky but it looks like she's going to pull through ok. They're all eating and skittering around in their brooder box. We need to keep them at 95 degrees for a week using a 250 watt heat lamp, we drop the temp by 5 degrees a week until they are feathered out.
I think I can hear my electric meter spinning???
We had to keep raising the lamp this weekend as it reached almost 90 outside on Saturday and it was in the 80's today.
