Backyard Fun!

Today I picked another buttload (that is the technical term I like to use) of strawberries, and, as I washed and hulled them, I set the oogie ones aside.  By "oogie"  I mean, they had bruises or had been nibbled on by some critter.  I'm not going to eat those.  

The chickens don't mind a bit.  So, I gave them a tasty treat of a few berries.  Score one for chickens.


Then I thought they might like to get out and enjoy the buggy, sunny day.  So I opened the gate to let them explore...


Here they come!


And there they go.
They immediately went to a dirt mound in the back of the yard...



I started taking a couple of pictures of my other baby rolling around in the grass...



...and the girls came running back to me (probably thinking that I had more good stuff to share)

Since I didn't, they went and hung out in the driveway to wait for my husband to get home.  Really.  They will probably also visit the neighbors for a little bit since that guy likes to throw bread in his yard.  For the birds, one might assume--no it's for his dog.  

OK then.  Of course it is.
