Portrait of Grace Kelly the Buff Orpington.

Sometimes I go out back to take pictures of birds and chickens are the only birds I get.

Lucy the Rhode Island Red hen.

She’s the one that likes to chase our golden retriever.

Daylilies also allow a photographer to get close. They hold still long enough to have their picture taken.

Be grateful for luck. Pay the thunder no mind – listen to the birds. And don’t hate nobody. – Eubie Blake
