Chicks in the coop! Anne gave them their first introduction to their new home yesterday. They were surprised by their new surroundings, and spent an hour or so huddled in the corner warning each other to be careful. But they gradually started scouting out the territory and picking at the bugs and seeds. They’re still spending the night in the house (the mud room, to be precise), but need to get acclimated to the outdoors soon. Winter is coming, as they say in Game of Thrones.

I managed to get a fuzzy photo of the wood ducks, but they flew when I tried to get closer. We need to build a bird blind! More construction projects, hurray!

Also, the turkeys left a souvenir down by the pond. Anne is showing it off.
