Introducing

Henny and Penny.

These gorgeous girls moved in several weeks ago now and are part of the family.

They lay the smallest eggs I have ever seen for chickens but then they are very small chickens. The breed is known as Pekin.
I'm not sure why but I seem to derive a great deal of pleasure by just sitting quietly watching these birds scratch around the yard. I find it incredibly relaxing and satisfying to see them catching bugs and insects in and around the yard and vege patches.


I am in spiral mode at the moment and am looking forward to upcoming holiday in Queensland.

Visiting with oldest daughter Laura.
I canot express in words how much I have missed her over the last 5 months.

I know she is a big girl now, working and living with boy friend, yet it only feels like yesterday when I held her in my arms for the first time.

Number one son is turning 11 in 4 sleeps, where does the time go........
