I grew up in the suburbs, so farm animals still seem “exotic” to me and are fun to photograph. During my visit to Washington state, I have enjoyed observing the five chickens and one duck that my son Josh and his wife keep in a pen in their large back yard.
It was especially fun to watch them yesterday when the birds were free to explore the entire fenced yard while Josh cleaned their pen. I was initially concerned that the dogs would chase after the chickens, but they seemed fine together, though we did keep an eye on them to make sure there were no problems.

When I see those chickens, what do I see? Poetry in feathers, clucking just for me…
I love watching chickens scratch about… restful, it is. I call it ‘chicken meditation.’ 😉
What fun they are. Chickens make us chuckle! In fact, we call our “Chuckles”. Glad the dogs were good. It took some training for our dogs to leave them alone, but they learned well! 👏
