In the Chickens Again

Another day, another batch of grandkids, another trip after eggs.  This time we took Schwartzbeere's kids with us.  They were a little younger than Blaubeere's kids so it was all the more new to them.  Yes, we took Blaubeere's kids out a while back but I didn't get around to posting on that trip.  Anyway, Schwartzbeere's oldest is only four and little kids and farm animals are so cute together.

So Grandma ducked into the pen to gather eggs while the kids waited and watched with Grandpa.

Chickens make such a gentle sound when they're calm.  This time they were a little excited because they thought they might be getting something to eat.  But they calmed down pretty quick.

The kids were quite content to watch through the fence.

Lots of questions.  They were pretty fascinated.

Checking out this angle and that, getting a good look at the chickens.

Pretty soon Grandma came out with the eggs she'd gathered up this trip.  Two dozen, about normal.

Then a last few minutes watching the chickens and it was time to go.

You know how it is, Grandma needed lots of help carrying the eggs.  They are eggs, after all.  Can't be too careful.  It was a fun visit.
