The Walden Effect: Farming, simple living, permaculture, and invention.

Delicious rattle

day we moved the flock in 2011 early spring


Flock moving day was a smooth operation thanks to Anna's method of leading the way with a delicious rattle of laying pellets hitting the wall of a plastic cup.

Yummmmmmmy.

I noticed the new Waldeneffect photo heading. Once again, I note your loyal readers get a picture of the back of Anna's head. I'm beginning to suspect a plot. A conspiracy even? Is she deliberately picking out pictures of her back?

You can tell what I think's important. :-) I wanted to slip in a photo of the chickens, but I guess I could have waited and found a shot with my face too. Naw, too much trouble.
