The Buns ..........................

have been venturing out of the nest this week. They've began eating their greens too.




Update ~ The lone guinea made it through the night , it was running around the fence line when I went out the next morning.






Hope Your Weekend is Wonderful !!

Down by the Stream ...........................



Curious J had an early out day yesterday , the weather was nice , so we spent the afternoon exploring the stream.



I didn't do as much exploring as he did , but enjoyed watching
him climb .............




try a little balancing .........................





and jumping .......





As we hiked on down stream , Mojo joined the exploration.



A little further down stream , they discovered our small bridge that had washed away awhile back. We need to get it out and replace it. It was a really peaceful afternoon and I enjoyed my time with Curious J and Mojo.





Be Blessed

Free Birds ...................................



The keets have grown into young adults and this year I'm trying something new with their release.



I've been letting them out during the day , but trying to get them to roost inside at night.


The 4 adult guinea have been busy looking after them and teaching them how to be a guinea.


They stay busy all day long running them back to the underbrush or into the woods.


Sunday night they decided not to come in and roost , so they spent the night in the woods , roosting in the trees. They all survived , thankfully. Tonight , all but one went into roost , I tried to chase it in , but it became spooked and disappeared into the dark and I couldn't find it. I hope it isn't spotted by any predators and makes it through the night.




Many Blessings

Eyes Open ........................



The kits have grown so fast ,

their eyes have opened ..........



and they're so cute peeping out the nesting box.


They haven't came out of the nest yet , but it should be soon.
I think it was to cold the last few days , but they should be out and hopping about this week as it warms up.


Little Froggy is cuddling with my favorite bunny, it's light grey and so cute. I'll probably keep that one and hope to find homes for the others. I want to find a full size buck to breed Candy Corn with.

Many Blessings

Native Garden Angel .................................................



There was a beautiful sunrise yesterday , I love seeing the colors behind the silhouetted trees.


My friend Judie ask what was hanging in the tree near the garden when I posted the pics of Little Froggy and Mojo in my last post. So here she is , it's my garden angel. I originally hung her there to help scare the deer off , but now she just keeps watch over the garden. She's no longer a threat to the deer after being there so long unless I add perfume or cologne to her dress.

Daffodils , Garlic and Wild Onions ..................................


Last Friday while out feeding the animals , Little Time and I spotted some more daffodils that were blooming.


When he saw me taking a pic , he ran up and wanted to pose next them (LOL).


Since the weather has been so nice , I've been planting more garlic. Little Froggy was eager to help.



He planted about 10 cloves ..............





and was on to better things ...................





like , making Mojo a wild onion collar. Bet that would keep the fleas away (LOL).




Many Blessings
