Whilst I was out with chickens this afternoon it decided to rain, so rather than put the chickens back in the run and go inside (as we never leave the hens unsupervised) I decide to open up the canopy over the raised decking.

The girls seem to appreciate this and spent their time looking through and pecking at the patio window into the lounge much to the amusement of our cats Thelma and Louise.

I think Posh and Pecks have gotten use to seeing the cats as they no longer make any loud noises and seem happy to be up close.

Once the rain had stopped the girls retreated to the corner of the garden for a spot of digging, I decided to join them and uncovered a few worms which they thoroughly enjoyed playing tug of war with. It was whilst I was turning over the soil that Posh decided to jump onto my shoulders, which is not unusual although this time she decided to have a gently peck at my eye lashes, thus poking me in the eye.

I think in future I will consider wearing safety glasses
