Hooptedoodle #491 - Fowl Play Suspected

 Invaded again. A couple of chickens from the other side of the farm steading were here today checking out our new squirrel-proof bird feeder, which may feature in a post soon. I went outside to discuss it with them, and they ran away. They are quick - not graceful, but quick.


 As long as they stay away from the power cables...

  1. They look like a couple of big bruisers - enough to scare a cow to climb up a power cable?

    1. I would think so; they might fancy a quick rub on an electricity pole - that should cause some sparks. We have some areas of fresh grass seed at the moment (assuming the downpour hasn't washed it all away) - I was worrying in case the invaders had been scratching at that, but no signs of it yet.
