Ah..... at last... What we have all been hoping for: And we may get even more tonight. I hope that's true. I'm very happy that the hens that were molting have all feathered out again. Though Phoebe and Goldie have just a little ways to go to be fully feathered. They try to avoid walking right in the snow. I don't blame them. And I have some good/bad news about my original camera. I actually got it to start working again. So these photos were taken with the good camera. The bad news is I KNOW that its days are numbered and I still have to find a replacement. I had a brainstorm the other day to contact a local photographer who puts all kinds of photos on Facebook on our local news page. I thought I might give him a call and ask for some advice. That's my plan anyway. I'm trying to get over calling someone I have never met and asking for a favor. Pretty cheeky. But I'm desperate. ( Sounds like a bad combination of personality traits to me.) Everything sounds bad to you. You lose credibility when you take a negative stand ALL the time. (Good point.) (But I still think that's a bad combination.) Sigh...
