Meet the girls; our constant companions and source of much fun. I don’t know their names, maybe they don’t have any, but they live in the pigsty in Cristin yard and emerge mid morning to wait by the gate to come up into the garden. Once there they spend the rest of the day scrounging as much food as possible. They know Jim is a good source if he is filling up the wild bird feeders and follow him around ever hopeful. They also recognise the kitchen door and appear, as if by magic, to see if any goodies have been left for them on the lawn. On windier days they stay in the yard and sunbathe in a cosy corner. At the end of the day they wait, by the gate, to be let back into the yard to mull over the day’s highlights and dream of what tomorrow may bring.

The girls are called: Peggy (the brown one and oldest at 7 years of age!),White Chicken (guess which that one is!) and the one from the farm/charcoals mum (the big black one that originally came to us with two chicks from Ty Pellaf. She raised a stunning, but rather noisy cockerel (charcoal) who then went to rule the roost at the farm). They are looking in good shape, thanks for taking such good care of them.....

Thanks. Well may as well put the bird food to some good use. Barry White is still around and helps them out.
