Birds of a Feather

Many of these are our residents enjoying the puddle that the farm becomes after a big rain.  After those few hot days we don't have any more standing water.  We have also noticed more birds this year than ever before.  The trees are full of robins and many others that we have yet to identify.  We've been graced by some enormous and graceful egrets and blue herons.  Ray hopes that we'll get some more rain so he can get a picture of them.  They like to stand out in the flooded fields and feed.  If you are thinking about coming out to the farm you will still need your rain boots.
