Again - I apologize my dear friends and Lone Reader (hi mom!) for my absence. I seem to be apologizing for that particular thing a LOT these days, but life has picked up its already ridiculously fast pace, and I have no idea where the time is going. I feel perpetually behind on all things, but am hell bent on enjoying today with the kiddleywinks. Yes.
So without further ado, please admire my beauteous captions and pretend to be updated in no particular order (because the blog is not cooperating):
 |
| Re-post this may be, but happy to be seeing these guys in our garden. They keep nibbling critters away and if they're around, big copper colored ones are not. |
 |
| The Lone Reader bought us these Vincas while she was visiting so I would have something pretty to look at amongst the bare dirt, chicken poop, and the flotsam and jetsam. They are thriving. |
 |
| New 'pants chickens'! We got four Silkie chicks, 2 black and 2 buff. The boys call them 'pants chickens' for obvious reasons. |
 |
| Cindy is molting. And she looks like a porcupine. |
 |
| This guy was stunningly beautiful despite his only having 7 legs. |
 |
| Some of the 'baby' chickens checking out the new Silkie arrivals. |
 |
| Cotton flowering |
 |
| When I ran out of gas mowing the meadow, the Redneck came to my rescue on (in?) his trusty Yota steed. |
 |
| The Vincas are re-seeding themselves already |
 |
| Silly Silkies - can you find all 4? |
 |
| WTF North Carolina people. These didn't move the whole 10 minutes it took me to get this picture. |
 |
| While the mass o' freaky caterpillars wasn't moving, I picked 3 gallons of these. |
 |
| A couple of hours later they had changed color, grown spikes and gotten both more hairy and more scary. |

we have those same little green snakes around our property too
They make me happy. They're gorgeous and NOT poisonous. I like that combo!
LOL to the trusty steed rescue, they have silkies at the zoo in Windsor they are pretty when grown, I did some much needed yard work Sat early morn before you came to get the kids, I had to kill a baby copper head with the shoval would have rather had that gorgeous green snake we used to get those in the rasberry patch in VA
Love your silkies and blueberries. And love the green snake, particularly because he scares away copperheads. wth are those caterpillars anyway?
