incidental bird

Today's post is  brought to you by Milk & Honey Farm, Starkville, MS. This is a real place, so don't you dare go off and harass them. Or else.


Chris has the best fun tutoring folks, and one of the teens he tutors pays him in delicious food such as homemade bread and homemade goat cheese. Today, we received a payment of fresh free-range eggs. When you aren't breeding for sad fat chickens who lay white eggs, chickens lay beautiful eggs of various colors. These eggs are naturally green and tan. Apparently, color schemes are specific to breeds, but individual hens will each lay different shades within that color scheme. So pretty!

Also, when the mom of the family dropped off the eggs, her smaller daughter gave me a flower.

Also, holy smokes my hair is way too long.
