Yard Birds 101

It's kind of a standing joke around here that I want chickens and my DH doesn't.  It sounds like I'm not the only woman with this issue.  :)  Anyway, when we got home from our trip, we discovered that this lovely pair of guineas had made themselves quite at home in our yard.  Hubby said to the kids, "Mom has wanted chickens for so long that finally the chickens had to come to her!"  I guess it's not quite like having my own chickens (they aren't even chickens for goodness sake!), but we have really enjoyed watching them poke around the yard....
