~ 88 ~ Walk With Me Tonight: A Stitch of Black & White

in walkwithme •  7 years ago 

Mr. Pendock and his older ladies are already in bed...

IMG_4188.jpg

They are much smarter than those silly teenagers, and go to bed nice and early to get the best spots on the roost. The teens are all out partying still, and have not learned yet, this means getting a bad spot, or even worse, no spot come nightfall.

IMG_4189.JPG

Mr. Pendock is quite happy to nestle in with his favourite fluffy white #chickenbitches at 4pm. He pities the fools who miss out on this action. And the black hen in the back, craning her neck, is feeling a lot of longing wishing she too could snuggle up to Mr. Pendock. One day she may get her chance, but it's not today.

I still have a few eggs to collect...oops!

IMG_4193.JPG

IMG_4194.JPG

And Alfalfa thinks she's gonna hatch some...

IMG_4197.JPG

For the last 4 days she's convinced that she is going to be a Mother. We just can't hatch eggs right now, it's winter honey! Your chicks would not do well. So we have to move her off of the eggs, getting bitten 10-20 times while she makes a hideous squealing sound. I can't blame her...I know what it's like when that biological clock is ticking!

The Teenagers

IMG_4181.jpg

Prowling around, convinced I still have a treat in my pocket. They're not smart like Pendock and his bitches who know the treats end by 2pm.

Buddy is content with eating gravel and grass.

IMG_4186.JPG

The Punisher looks extra punishy with the wind blowing her feathers the wrong way...

IMG_4199.JPG

Sonic AKA Smelly Belly is looking a little punishy herself today, she must not like her new nickname...who could blame her?

The Moment I Know You Have Been Waiting For

Puddle Barometer Reading! And it gets even better...I haz a new PB...feast your eyes on this:

It's warmer again and there's a nice layer of water on all of the frozen puddle barometers. Life is Good.

BREAKING NEWS
I've just recieved a report regarding the 'Darth Layer'.
Last seen orbiting Tatouine prior to a large disturbance on the force, this picture was sent to me by an anonymous source.....

Apparently this was during a life or death battle with Obi-wan Chickobi leader of the rebellion!
This is the latest up date on the ..........

YASSS!!! HAHHAHAAA!! I've been wondering where that tramp has been!!!! I shoulda known...

Mr. Pendock is like

HAHAHA!!! NAILED IT!

That was such an incredible photo! I love it! :)

Also, thanks for sharing (resteeming) your boyfriend/husband's or whatever articles. I appreciate it!

I appreciate You for checking out @hendrix22's posts!!

I am interested in all kinds of things. We can talk about anything!

When I follow your post that contains chicken livestock ... I remember the past when I used to have a chicken farm, and the number is not so much only 300 tail. And it's cool and makes me happy. Until one day all my chickens died attacked by a virus, at that time I do not know his name. Similar to H5N1 or bird flu.

I am so sad hearing about the death of your chickens :'( :'( That's terrible!

and it happens in 48 hours, everything is dead. I am very sad, I remember my age 10 years .. and it's been a long time ... hehe

We just can't hatch eggs right now, it's winter honey! Your chicks would not do well.

Wow! Really. It's amazing then that down here, the chickens hatch all year round. But then the eggs would become chewy chewy,as food.
Sorry for sounding so naive, what does the puddle barometer do?

Oooh there's nothing naive about not knowing what the puddle barometer is haha, it's just a joke. All it does is state the obvious of what the weather currently is hahaa :) :)

Hahaha OK, I get it now, it's like a weather thermometer. Wow, thanks for this information.

I keep meaning to go for a walk and life keeps getting in the way!! On a different note, a dog rescue friend of mine, she runs a pitbull rescue, has chickens too and one of the females is very miniature. Their little boy and "peanut" are bonded and they make sure to get peanut in every night; taking her into the 🏠 house to keep her safe!! Also, have you heard of the "Mike the Headless Chicken" Festival that takes place every year in Fruita Co.? Which is not far from me. Many many years ago a farmer wet to butcher a rooster and somehow accidentally didn't completely remove all the brain/head, and the rooster didn't die n the farmer didn't have the nerve to finish the job. Hence Mike the Headless Chicken which lived a substantial number of years without a head!

Poor alfalfa, breaks my heart. All she wants is to be a momma only to be doomed to failure at this moment. Hopefully she will be one to get you some new hatchlings when you are ready. DQmaw9hENamh87mKU3cJsg9jP8N3NzxwAEv8NVzNyccU7GT.jpg alfalfa sitting on eggs.jpg
I just love the beautiful feathers on Sonic Aka Smelly Belly.
DQmTX3yN5tfPFxWRVezWYNfPBdoyTNobCeLDr95WHL4oEE2.jpg sonic chicken lyndsay.jpg
Another fantastic edition of walkwithme @lyndsaybowes style. Ps I love those tall pines as well. Why I take so many photos of the trees. Just love how they look. Majestic ; )

Aw your little godchicken will be a proud Mama this spring! @marionbowes says the same thing about Smelly Belly, that she'd like to take those feathers and make a sweater out of them, they're so pretty!

Can't wait to see her little chickadee once she becomes a momma. That is a great idea. Those beautiful feathers on sweater or maybe a fancy dress. Just stunning.<3

SO enjoyed this! It made me realize how much I had missed your wwms while you were sick- I hope this means you're feeling better- great to get caught up on the antics of the #chickunbetchezzz ;)

D;awwwww...sending you a big Ol Hug and 35 tiny little chicken hugs <3 <3 xoxoxo!!!

YAY!!! Best digital gift ever <3

King Pendock is rocking the place all over with his blackish feathers oh gosssssh <3

I did not know that Smokie is his son :P In my opinion if Pendock and Sonic make some fun with each other then baby chickens would be some wonderful creatures ;)

P.S: When ever i read your blogs i feel that i am living those moments with you, superb way to caption the things Lyndsay <3

I think The Punisher is my spirit animal

Bwa hahahhhaa!!! Great comment Jessica!! :D :D :D

Hey @lyndsaybowes I'm loving the black and white shots! Pendock and his bitches! I'm currently working out a storyline for Chickenz monthly comic and that's the perfect title lol

Beautiful shots and as always the ice looks a mesmerizing! One thing I have been wondering is whether it ever gets cold enough to freeze the water in your basement? Indoor skating rink??!! lol

Omg no thank goodness hahahaha, it's a nice swimming pool :) No zambonis needed hahaha!!

Hahaha 😄 those gorgeous chickens!!! Such a riot!! The black and white is such a fun treat. I love the big ol' pines too 💚

But, as i mentioned in @hitmeasap's #walkwithme post, mostly i love the community of people that you have facilitated in bringing together. It's just frickin'awesome 🎶 HUGS!!

Love your walks! Thanks for sharing
💜💛💚💙🖤❤

Awww, alfalfa, silly lady. No babies for you! You're gonna have soo many broodies come spring, maybe look into selling chicks? Your ladies bloodline is broody strong, haha.
The pics look really cool in black and white. I like the big tall trees one. We have such awesome trees around here. Really huge and majestic <3
Also, f those slippery water covered puddles, I've been bailing and slipping all over the place!
Xoxo

For sure Amy, we'll definitely be continuing to populate this side of the Bay with our broody breed :) For the most part I'll be trying to only have a few hatches this summer. Wish me luck! I've heard mixed reviews on successfully breaking broody hens.

Yeah I've heard its real hard :( But I DO wish you luck :)
If you just keep taking the eggs away, What are they gonna do? Just make sure you get some of those full arm heavy duty mega gloves to protect yourself while collecting from under the brood of broodies!

@lyndsaybows, Wow...today your chicken family come with your #walkwithme post. Mr.Pendlock and his teenagers looking in background. Pendlock doing great task in steemit platform :D. Punisher looking something. He has various face effect today.
Outstanding view of Freeze ocean cove. Its beauty with b&w clicks. Awesome background change. Trees are silent in nature. Cool winds gives coll feelings.
I'm really happy today I posted my 1st #walkwithme post. Thanks for encourage me via see most genius steemians posts. Try to do more further. Stay blessed.

That's so great @madushanka, I try to see all of the walkwithme so I will surely see yours soon! Congrats on making your first #walkwithme :) It's a pleasure to have you aboard!

Thanks @lyndsaybowes for providing one more #walkwithme tour to entertaining us. Love to see your lovely chicken collection, my youngest daughter like them much, she always go and take eggs herself and happy much. Today your black photography of natural scebes is awsome.Take care. best wishes.
One egg from teenager and other from mother hen.

I dearly love your chicken commentary. The black hen in the back craning her neck to gaze longingly at the desirable Mr Pendock...too funny!!

Haha what?

Thank you, I thought she looked so funny back there, just photobombing!

Nice collection of black and while pictures. You have good photography skills.
I love puddle barometer reading. Resteemed :)

I love chikens. Your pictures with black and white look so amazing. Thank you for sharing.

Your flock is something else and the way you describe their escapades is so amusing. I miss them whenever they are missing from your post. Say hi to Mr Pendock for me, the paramount ruler of the flock. Thank you ma for sharing.

Pendock is a nice name, and all chicken are very healthy. I am impressed with photography, all photographs are good.

Thank you very much @lovecreativity <3

Hello dear lady, I often visited your posts and feeling much excited to see wonderful photography like a professional photographer.I like your chickens and this icy place. Thats amazing for me....

Mr. Pendock and his older ladies are already in bed...

Wonderful walk around Mr Pendock's turf. The puddle is getting slightly warmer but the looks of it. Getting warmer here are so I thought the temp have dropped again this week. One more month on the bus then it definitely the bike ! 💯🐒

YAY!!! BikeWithMe!!!! <3 <3 I can't wait to see where you get to Vibe!!

To work and back mostly haha. But planning a cycle for my hols. A bit of a jolly round England 💯🐒

oh I must get out there. I have been sitting on the couch. Too windy, too rainy..What the heck. I love Mr. Pendock and I was a chicken bitch well look out guy, I would be the first in that roost. Get him while he is hot. I want to run in black and white. hmm. I may just be a copy/cat..ta for now

  ·  7 years ago (edited)

I love how you actually named all of your chickens. The Punisher one just made me laugh out laud. She surely looks like ready for some action lol
All in all a lovely walk that put a smile on my face once more :) Thank you!

p.s. have you seen, my recent #wakwithme was featured on "The Daily Qurator #146" (https://steemit.com/qurator/@qurator/qurator-tiers-and-upvote-weights-update-06-02-2018-or-940-members). Giving this wonderful initiative even more visibility! ^.^

i love your chicken @lyndsaybowes for being so smart and orderly in getting the best place for them.

ah haha...At first I read Mr. Pendock's name as Pencock 😂
with age comes experience and the chickenbitches haha...so love that term :D
Big fan of your nature photos, but have to say, that shot with Punisher, such a mean stare :)

It looks like Mr. pendock as King in place of that, many wives that surround that is also willing to pain in part behind it because it must often lay eggs at all times. his throne and a comfortable bed can not go by the teens. This is great @lyndsaybowes, stop in my post to see the chicken on top of the sky.

I love to walk with you. It's so charming and so at home. Photos of the ice is just incredible! Such a thick lump.

"Mr. Pendock and his older ladies are already in bed..." - hahaha)))

Chikeeennsss yeeeyy! I love chikens! I fell like i want to cuddle one of them

Aww, I hope you could get some chickens one day, they are really great animals to have around! :) And a couple of them don't mind being picked up, but not the Punisher, she will bit you for reallz.

Even the Punisher needs some lovin'

that is great and nice photography @lyndsaybowes

20180205_091556.png

mr pendock looks quite happy with his partner, hopefully no one bothers them. and can provide many eggs. thanks @lyndsaybowes

Thank you so much, bless your heart @musliwadi :)

thanks. @lyndsaybowes healthy always.

You are real homesteader/farmer when you have chicken poop on your boots! lol Love the big puddle barometers!

Here is a clear picture of Mr. Pendock with an "old woman"

wawwww ........ chicken lyndsaybowes already laying eggs, I ask one for a nursery. i like chicken.

Awww, love your birdies. They are so wise going to bed early! I was planning a #WalkWithMe photoshoot today but it was too slushy in Montreal. I know, no excuse :-)

It's all good, I am still looking forward to your first outing, be safe :) :) :) Don't risk the slush and ice for us!

20180205_093435.png

it really feels interesting there where you, let alone there is a tire that depends on it, wow really fun. seems to be remembering my childhood first. thanks @lyndsaybowes

I'm glad you have happy childhood memories of playing on a tire swing, and that I could remind you of those innocent times. Thank you for writing me @bungongrauza95!

yes @lyndsaybowes, success is always for you

The black and white photos came out perfect! Your chickens have so much personality and make me smile. Thank you for sharing. :)

Some beautiful colors on them birds oh and that last one needs to meet the cooking pot!

Got to love the chickenbitches!! Nice walk again

Sonic is gorgeous! I want to snuggle her so freaking badly!

whether you love Mr. pendock, but I don't know which pendock. thanks @lyndsaybowes

I enjoyed your story, clean chicken, I like it.DQmfFUZQ7Q92uGjcztorWKaqMkiyV8LheQ5raqz9JxsUNu5_1680x8400.jpeg

That is Mr. Pendock. The black rooster you have there with the big red comb and waddle.

More icy cold weather.🤨

We’ve gotten a couple snowstorms the past couple weeks here in Edmonton.

Yeah, winter is far from over for most of us Canucks EH?

It’s going to be cold here in Edmonton all week. Not looking forward to my daily commute to work on icy roads!

Lol chicken bitches! May I ask how James Bond is doing??

James Bond is doing great, she hasn't been around when I've had my camera lately, but my husband informed me she jumped up on our deck today and went into the bottom of the barbecue to eat from the grease trap LOL!!!

Hahah she’s a feisty one with lots of character! 💕

Just like her godmother! Well, except for the barbecue incident hahaha!

It was a nice adventure @lyndsaybowes! I especially enjoyed the image of The Punisher.

Thank you @backlau, she does have very impressive colouring!

Your chikens looks better on B&W it doesn't mean it is ugly with colors

Haha, thank you dear @soufianechakrouf!

I am so jealous of your bare ground and puddles.

Punxsutawney Phil must die to end this accursed winter.

Oooh my...around here our accursed winter has only just begun, we get terrible, terrible snowstorms in February and March...you will see...and then you will laugh as you are basking in tulips and green grass haha!

Yeah, it's so horrible :( :(
I can't get used to it! My mind just won't accept it. I've lived here in ns 20 yrs... But no. Every spring, it's like wtf? Guh? More snow? Well this is strange... But it's not strange, I'M strange, its our normal hahaha

Oh the tulips don't arrive until May (along with the tourists).

That is, unless we start getting some of that global warming everyone keeps promising.

Unfortunately we've had record cold temps early in the season, followed by our February thaw (in January) and now we're back to sub freezing temps for at least 2 weeks.

What I wouldn't give for a nice volcano like they have in Iceland.

awesome tire shot and for some reason I never really get made if I step in Goose , Duck or Bird Shit ! Dog poop on the other hand is no fun lol

Yeah, stepping in dog shit, is SHIT! hahahhahaaa!!

These sweet beasts are so cute, wow, so your #walkwithme this time I must really say,is so eye catching and you always take their at their best.

I'm glad you think our feathered family is cute <3 Much Love @josediccus!

Lol. The picture below the when will i see you again by @francisk is actually like a meme with the ostrich looking out for something.and Mr Pendock does not look happy with the camera. He looks grumpy like his fluffy white bitches are asking too much of him. Lol
Nice walk

Yeah, he's got 99 problems and those two white gals are 1.

Lol. Problems Cute people have.. Haha

Very useful post you @lyndsaybowes
Hmmmm This is my favorite chicken is very delicious kalou in fried let alone have spicy seasoning

i am always glad to walkwith you

Great pics.. love chickens we have so many in the garden from little chicks to grown up and well-seasoned chickens and roosters... one big happy family.... Funny though that while they have a little house they prefer to sleep in the trees.

Very cute haha :)

I love all posts Walking with you @lyndsaybowes

Chickens are always faithful to his master, he will pay for each bait given by his master with the egg grain.

WooooW! first post that i see which have dual effect B&W and some of them colorfull its amazing and unique keep it up i wish you all the best

you are a great heart.
thanks for sharing

I see, you have many chickens. Is this chicken to be eaten everyday Or sold to the market ?

Thanks @lyndsaybowes

Really good chicken. We also had chicken and duck

Your story very funny and I like Mr. Pendock in your story

hopefully pendock pack soon be able to be together again with his chickens, I am also a chicken and other poultry, your chickens pretty @lindsaybowes

so beautiful shots .i like your photography

Hi! my dear friend @lyndsaybowes, i'm here and I see your post, it's really awesome pic....

Hi @lyndsaybowes, Very nice photography. Does any of your hens lay two-yolked eggs?

I have had it happen 1 time, yes :) Do you raise chickens?

My mom does. I will share those photos at Steemit soon.

nice post sir, i also love pines photo

I just followed you because I like this photography blog and I really like it. Keep it coming. By the way, it's the start of the day here and I just had some chicken dance while laying in my bed:

omg...what a beautiful photography dear friend @lyndsaybowes ,, i love your post all time,, I'm surprised to see your photography,,,,

Chicken bitches looking pretty tough these days with Mr. Pendock keeping them in order. He knows his girls are loyal to him. Alfalfa has the chick fever. Maybe we should send you the giant crane egg we found and see what she thinks about her giant chick?
You looked into the oce again knowing the spirits may not like it.lol.
Love the walk. 🐓🐓

I miss when i had chickens because I was abke to experience when a chicken warmed her eggs and the chicks came out. Hopefully you can get some chicks when its warmer 👍 the taste of your own chicken eggs is the best egg taste in the world. Those store eggs dont even compete with your own chicken eggs. Great stuff @lyndsaybowes

wow wonderful photography sir.i like the 5th one.how long time she was there for birth her children.............
Resteemed

Yes, I don't like it when that stuff gets on my shoe.

your photography and your Mr. Pendock and his older ladies just awesome.

nice photography....
I likes your post. I also walk with my friends every morning

Good story about "Mr. Pendock and his older ladies are already in bed". #walkwithme

excellent photography.what an amazing place this is! Just amazing.

Wow amazing photography

Thanks @lyndsaybowes
Have a great day

mk pendock looks so much fun, and looks no less like it. hope it does not matter and the split between them. mr, pendock looks very adorable, i like that. thanks @lyndsaybowes

Some beautiful colors on birds
i would be happy if you see my birds
https://steemit.com/bird/@nourtawfiq/birds

Comrades! I want to warn you. In the mountains there are a lot of wild animals, even bears ... Please do not frighten, do not offend them!
