2010 has seen a “first” for the year on NOL-NOC Estates. When you call it a “first” then you know there shall be more to follow and I’m not talking about a pleasant race to win. We lost our first bird of this New Year yesterday.

Happy New Year

Sorry to hear that :(
ReplyDeleteAww that's sad. :(
ReplyDeleteSuch a sad post, I am so sorry Annie.
ReplyDeleteTake care.
Yvonne:
Can you fence them in?
ReplyDeleteDon't you mean... so it ENDS? At least for the chickens with their sites on something shiny in the road. We might all learn a lesson HERE! ~ jb///
ReplyDeleteSorry, Annie. When we had chickens and other birds I always had my favorites, but I was attached to them all and hated to lose any of them.
ReplyDeleteLove and hugs,
Diane
RK, Joe, Yvonne -- Thank you for your condolences.
ReplyDeleteKenju -- My guinea fowl fly into the trees and on the roof so it would have to be a cage rather than a fence. We don't clip their wings because they need every ability to escape predators.
LZ -- Yep the end for that bird for sure but the beginning of our loss count of 2010. You're right though about the lesson. Chasing that shiny bauble gets us all in trouble doesn't it?
Diane -- I am too attached to my birds. When I grieve for one my family thinks I'm nuts. Especially when they see me eating fried chicken.
Oh sweetie, I'm so sorry. ((HUGS))
ReplyDeleteThe darn bird probably changed it's mind and decided to do the opposite of....oh , never mind.
ReplyDeleteWait, a chicken crossing sign but no guinea sign. tsc tsc
Dani -- Thanks!
ReplyDeleteCliff -- You know I've been thinking about adding a Guinea Fowl crossing sign. Perhaps my guinea was making that point.
