Fall Chores

While Papa Hen closed up the swamp cooler, installed two new motion sensor lights (after a midnight visit from four huge raccoon in our yard last weekend), and installed a new screen door with a doggie door, Mama Hen took care of the gardens.  It was fall clean up time!  The marigolds will remain for a little while. 

We had some volunteer squash in the gardens this year.  We have no idea of their variety.  Do you?

 These are the neglected squash that I decided to leave for now.  I'm curious about how big they will grow.

Some of the last veggies from our garden.  And one egg that I accidentally dropped after taking the picture.  Doh! 

The chickens' cleaning lady (Mama Hen) stopped in and left them with fresh dirt in the dirt bath.  Squawk!

And then Mr. Honk Honk, still recovering from his important surgery.  His spirits are good even wearing the darn cone.
