Music Monday - plus small garden/chicken update

Behold, Patriotism - muppet-style:



And here are some of the blooming things in the back yard in July...
Lots of volunteer poppies this year. Plus Bee Balm, and blooming catamint...

Beautiful blue borage stars.... Lots of raspberries in the patch....

One of the fancy, 'double' poppies (which almost look like peonies :-)...


And here are the babies - who are now gangly teenaged pullets (who will not stand still for the camera... I let them out of their hutch by day to scratch about the coop -


- while I let the evil big hens out to free-range in the yard and gardens. To their credit, they are *both* laying again, so I can't be entirely disgusted with them. :-)

Hah. Maybe the chickens are worried. Maybe they're thinking that laying few eggs right now will buy them some time.
