Dance Partners

With all the entries about the chickens and the eggs (my chickens came first ) I thought I'd try to take some pictures of "the girls". So I went out with the camera and sat on the bench - they all of course came over, hopped on the bench and were looking for snacks. Sigh - no way I was going to get a picture that way! So I sat and I sat and finally they got bored and wandered into the grass. Two of them wandered beyond the grass and down the hill out of sight. Again - sigh - guess they are camera shy! I started snapping pics of the dark chicken (she's darker than the other two and has a little green in some of her feathers).
Here she is

Well - after a few shots I think the others may have decided they needed some time with the camera too - so they both came over the edge of the hill together and I was quick enough to catch them with the camera - watching chickens run is a riot - truly a funny sight to behold - but in this picture it looks like they're dancing (maybe they were watching Dancing with The Stars in their coop the other night!

    They are certainly in step with one another LOL. Great pictures. Those do look like the ones my grandmother used to have. Maybe they just have a scientific name now from when I was little. Thanks for sharing. They are really pretty. Helen
