Dark Coop

We are out early in the morning to give the chickens fresh water and morning snackies.  Since the chickens wake with the sun and their automatic door opens with the sun, we find ourselves doing chores before they are up.  Some chores require that the chickens be up and about and we like to see them all before heading to work.  It's good to check on the birds every morning to see that they are all healthy.  This week, with Papa Hen traveling, I find myself impatient for them to wake up so I can get to work on time. 

This morning, I took some pictures of the coop in the dark.  It looks so peaceful (and bright--the camera's flash really brightens things up!).

The calm before the storm of chickens coming down the ramp!
