~ 89 ~ Walk With Me to See Some Flippin' Birds

in walkwithme •  7 years ago 

The Birds Were Calling Me Today

IMG_4318.JPG

I'm going to start calling myself the "crazy bird lady" soon, I know you will support me in this. Everywhere I look, there they are...

30 + Chickens...

IMG_4296.JPG

It's definitely crazy chicken lady territory when I don't even know how many chickens I have anymore! Damn they are good at breeding. There are over 30 of them, I know that much. You have seen this scene before. Whenever I leave for my afternoon walk I feed the chickens their treat bowl first. There's everyone in the run eating, and poor Big Smokie on the outside looking in...

And if he tries to go in to help feed the ladies...

IMG_4297.JPG

We all know what happens, plus Mr. Pendock has warned him against explicitly a million times. Only Mr. Pendock is man enough to feed the hens. Smokie is a bitch and he better know his place!

IMG_4298.JPG

Da fuck are you even looking in this direction for Smokie?

IMG_4300.JPG

Run Smokie! Pendock is gonna fuck you up bro!

Well, I've had enough of this chicken shit. I head out on the highway...

IMG_4306.jpg

And see my badass Gull friends who apparently enjoy roosting on ocean ice, and bathing in the freezing water.

IMG_4305.JPG

This sweet, colourful duck brightened my day!

IMG_4303.JPG

I love his feet so much :)

IMG_4307.jpg

And a day could never be complete without my Crow Family...

I didn't even know they were there but they must have wanted their picture taken because as I passed by they started cawing. Crows are my favourite bird of all time. Ravens are awesome too but I just haven't spent a lot of time around them. I sure wish to one day, I definitely love their beards!

It's so crazy to me, but that photo above is not edited. Just facing the sun did this, I was trying to capture the sparkles off of the ocean ice, low tide. Success and Failure all in one.

I really loved the red, green and white on that roof.

This post is for the birds!
You guys are really getting a nice Flock of chickens.
Our flock has been slowly dwindling from 32 down to 19.....we'll probably order a bunch of chicks for May delivery and revive the egg supply!!!!

Or maybe we should just get a donkey!!!!!!!!!

AHHAA!!! Love it BriMax!! Watch out for those donkeys though, they are GREEDY!!!!

Hey @lyndsaybowes yet another beautiful #walkwithme!! Your bird lady comment reminded me of when I was working with my Dad (who's a builder). We were in the countryside and the woman in the house opposite used to have a ritual where in the morning she used to step into the garden and whistle. As soon as she whistled all the birds would swoop down from the trees and land all over her, at which point she would hand feed them .. it was amazing to witness!!

Thank you for you're beautiful pictures and for inspiring my walk down memory lane .. oh I loved the black and white shots and that icy sea just looks so stark and lonely, beautiful stuff!

OOooh my GOD what I would to to be able to reach that level of Crazy Bird Lady!! Talk about Life GOALS~!!!!!! I think I picked up on the secret too.... FOOD!!!!!! I don't carry near enough food in my pockets!!

Bless her! What an inspiration!! Thanks for sharing that story with me...

@lyndsaybowes, Excellent start with bird calling to you from his sweety voice. Wow...Today chicken family coming out to steemit platform. 30+ chickens wow amazing group. Who's the leader there?
Ha ha.... Mr.Pendock is awesome character here. And Mr. Pendock try to fuck to Smokie.. Lol...Smokie has cruel looks.
All ducks really enjoying with freezing water. Delightful captures of them. Brightness crows photo clicks indeed. Nice b&w click gave me golden memory. Exactly you're professional photographer. You everyday stunning me via #walkwithme.
Snow condition has yet but start changing background. Marvelous creating from nature. Thanks for the effort.

Thank you so much, Mr. Pendock is definitely the leader here :) I'm so happy you enjoyed the assortment of photos today @madushanka!

Had a murder outside my window this evening, they really are beautiful contrast in the snowy trees.

Lovely post.

Yeah! This is an awesome sight 🖤
Where was this photo taken?

Out my bedroom window this afternoon.

Oooh wow...thank you so much for sharing @bleedpoet! xoxo

Chicken math is a real problem that people should be warned about ahead of time. You start out with six adorable chickens and before you know it you lose count and some of them don't even have names yet!

Lol, great walk Lyndsay! The sparkles are gorgeous!!!

Thank you HickoryMack! xoxo I'm happy you enjoyed the sparkles!!!

I know this is an apple/oranges comparison, but all these birds remind me I need to "shoot" the wild turkeys in the cornfield behind my house and upload them. They are soooooo fun to watch! :)

Thanks for always bringing the birds to the yard! :D

Ooooh yes please do!!! Do they make crazy turkey noises too??? I gotta see this!!

I've just viewed them from behind a glass door, they're pretty skiddish.

But I'll see what I can do :)


I always root for Big Smokie you know.

Bwa hahahahaa,,,,,Pendock's days are numbered!!

Great walk. I love the chicken parts. Smokie better stay away from pendock or tings gonna go down. It reminds me of rooster fights. When I was in El salvador with my family we went to go watch rooster fights and they fought till one died.... im not saying to put smokie and pendock in a fight tho hahaha 😂 it just reminded me. Awesome walk

Oooh yes, cock fights, that would make me so sad!

I love Birds :) you captured beautiful photos and your black and white photos looks like a master of photo graphy!! :))
peace!!

Thank you so much for coming by and enjoying the photos @davidfar!

Lovely ♡Screenshot_20180208-005558.png

Nothing wrong with being a bird lady xD

The spirits trying to chit chat in a form that doesnt fr3ak us the fuck out.
Mama nature druid style yo!

~☆~
Loverly photos as always!
Have a great weekend ♡

Awww, I love it x0!! Thank you very much, druid style it is!!

Wellcome back @lyndsaybowes, again with your #walkwithme full of entertainment and adventure. there is no doubt you are pure Crazy Birds Lady. you shared here crow family, beautiful duck and specially your amazing 30+ chickens. wonderful shots taken. love them all. I also want to share with you my selfie with Peacock, last evening i take while on my roof.

Beautiful Rabeel and beautiful peacock!! Thank you so much for sharing this beauty with me!!

Thanks a lot for your appreciations

Your photography is great I must say. Colourful pictures.

Birds are somehow great home pets, though they could be noisy sometimes tho, but when I'm sad and when I'm lonely, I end up with a few of them (in the poultry) and I find myself talking to them and letting out my anger. And funny enough they give me this noisy replies that ends up brightening my whole day. Thanks @lyndsaybowes for sharing with us this great sights

I'm glad I'm not the only one who talks to chickens, and hears them reply... :)

I love that you call yourself crazy bird lady. You sure do take some great photo's of birds.
black and white ship lyndsay bowes.jpg
Can I just say WOW! fantastic photo <3

I love this wonderful bird and wood at once. Hahaha

BWA HAHHAHAAA!!!!! Niiiiiiiice observation Sis!! LOLOLOLOLOL!!!! Fooookin love you!!! xxooxoxox

Hahahaha! I Fooookin love you too! Keep it comein. lololol. xoxoxo

There is so much to love in this post! First the chicken narratives always crack me up. They could have their own sitcom. That little duck seems so special. The blue in his feathers were awesome. I also loved the doors of the church. My wife would kill to have doors like that on our house. And finally, who doesn't love a murder of crows? I am absolutely fascinated by crows. They are such odd and intelligent creatures. I saw a documentary explaining how they can form bonds with people and actually leave trinkets they find as "gifts" for their chosen humans. I definitely need to get out and about soon. Thanks as always.

Yeah who could believe that crows are one of the smartest animals on earth? So much for the old saying "Bird Brain"...!!

I would love to have doors like that too...your wife has expensive taste hehehe! Maybe one day she'll get some Steem Powered doors!

I'm going to start calling myself the "crazy bird lady" soon, I know you will support me in this. Everywhere I look, there they are

I think they love the attention you give them and they know it. Who wouldn't?
I love the pictures. Is it still raining? Where I am now, we have started enjoying little rains, after much heat that made me wish I was living in the Arctic region.
Thank you ma for sharing.

Loving the chickens, Lyndsay! Are you feeling better now? I missed your walks. There is something about the doors to the church, I just like the colour and the wood grain. You haven't got much snow anymore. Perhaps Spring is on its way?

Feeling so much better, thank you Ceci!! Did everything work out for you, the situation I was crossing my fingers for?

Not yet, it could take months. Lots of red tape and government bureaucracy makes for slow going...

Hi Lindsay! I like your duck, too. I saw them in our Park. I call her" duck with a beautiful surprise, " because she has a blue feather under her wing. It's like a surprise.
DSC01231.JPG

It's nice to see your chicken stir. Cheerful noisy company. How's my favorite John Cena doing? By the way Hello him, hee-hee!
I also liked the boat on the shore. She'll probably have a sail in the summer, right? You have a very beautiful place. Beautiful nature. Thank you for a nice walk :) Wish You a nice weekend.

Aw, that is a wonderful name for this duck! xoxo Yes, the sailboat is in the ocean during the summer, it's sad to see them onshore... :(

Love that little cabin with the red roof. It reminds me of the ones we used to try and check out as kids in Saskatchewan... We'd make up stories like they were haunted and dare eachother to look through the windows or open its doors.

Wait a minute! You're from Saskatchewan! Me too :) i have noticed your posts but haven't been able to keep up! Nice to see you here @osm0sis hope i can catch up with your blog soon!

I wasn't born there but it's where I spent all my teenage years (7 years in Saskatoon).
YAAAAAY for Saskies!!! (all 3 of us haha)

Oh that's neat! I was born in PA graduade high school and took two years college there before moving to Alberta. Though my grandma's still live in north central SK. And, my baby sister and her family are in PA. And, many cousins. I still visit a time or two each year. It's a stark contrast to the beautiful exotic life you live now though eh! Yay Steem and teaching ❤

It's very different yes... I do miss the snow every Winter (but not the -50's).
Happy to connect with you @yogajill :)

You guys have been hit hard with Rain and constant snow. Stay safe and glad you got out.

Not much snow on the coast here, but inland they've gotten it pretty bad. I'll take the rain over the snow any day, grew up with too much of that cold white stuff in Northern BC, I'm good for life hahaha :) :)

How's your winter been treating you lately?

I'm going to start calling myself the "crazy bird lady" soon, I know you will support me in this. Everywhere I look, there they are...

Definitely, you will get support as usual. Just keep it up. Loving your photography.
Steem on :)

I have missed walking with you and I am happy that you are back at it once again. Those ducks are so so lovely.
Mr Pendock should show some kindness and let smokie enjoy some treats sometimes. I really feel for Smokie, always shut out. I love the serenity I see around Hackett's Cove.
Thank you for visiting my blog blog. You are awesome.

Aw, thank you for your empathy for poor Smokie. I know one day he will realize he is bigger and more manly than his spiteful father, and he will take the #1 place in the male pecking order! But then...will we feel bad for Pendock? I guess we shall find out...

Bunch of birds you got there

Nice.

i love your chickens and dope life.. here to be a friend and a supporter!:)

the results of your photos so good I want to be able to take a good object like you do @lyndsaybowes but I have a lot of obstacles such as equipment that I have not adequate, I just take a photo with my camera phone .. sometimes I feel sad

Well, hopefully if you work a lot on Steemit, you can get the equipment that you need! A Steem Powered camera!

yes, thanks for the input and support @lyndsaybowes, I will be even more striving in steemit.

The Photos are colorful and can entertain everyone whom read your post @lyndsaybowes. You done fun adventure and travelling

wow that's a great photography...
DQmeaVs4zayt7quXvqHwD4Loe461EkDrePnq65ufcLHq6Sx.jpg

Love the graveyard photo the best

Mr. Pendock the king rooster in the house Ladies & Gents, how could he leave his place just for useless rooster Smokie, Quite impossible :D :D

Thanks a lot for capturing my favorite character Pendock so deeply Lyndsay ;)

Yay - seagulls are my favourite! That boat pic is amazing - it looks as though a storm wave lodged it in that tree :)

Incredible @lyndsaybowes the chickens selau remind me of my hometown because now I am not in the village, success always, tarima love have shared

wonderful photography and beautiful scenes. I also love your hens as my mum has almost 50 + in our village. She alone lookes after them heaving 65 years old.
Thanks @lyndsaybowes for you sharing nature.

Mr. Pendock take the lead as usual
he has the leadership personality
I love this walk friend @lyndsaybowes

walking is just the perfect way of clearing the head.
I really like this #walkwithme tag to be honest!

But these chickens also really have a mind of their own hahaha, chicken are secretly more stubborn than we think hehe!

I really like the black hen with a red cock. It's so spectacular)

is it now in kanada @ lyndsaybowes? it seems like all the natural states are very beautiful, thank you for showing us, that all animals are interesting. healthy always for you.

it is very very beautiful photography and great work
Thanks @lyndsaybowes
Have a great day

a great beauty of birds , a great posts of nature, always wonderful

Stunning photos today Lyndsay! Love the bird theme 🖤 i will join your crazy bird lady group anyday! I think my fave pic is of the wooden church doors. Mainly because of the amazing sun shining off of them. And, the contrast of white/ black and wood. I also got to appreciating the wood framed chicken pen. It's great! LOL
But, just A+ photos today. Another entertaining and inspiring #walkwithme

I love that you call yourself crazy bird lady. You sure do take some great photo's of birds

I love, love your beautiful chickens.
The picture with the old house is one of my best ones, it just looks so cool.
I always have to take pictures of the ducks wherever I see them, they are so beautiful and the beautiful colors they have.

Awesome walk, like always.

The black and white contrast looks so artistic and peaceful but strong! You have a great eye for photography! By the way, why do chickens still breed in the winter? The babies survive the canadian cold winters?

They try to hatch chicks in the winter, but we don't let them because the babies would die. In the spring we will let them :)


Hi Mr. Pendock...
Have not seen you for a long time, but you still look cool .. you are my idol Pendock ...
you are very charming and passionate ..
i like your style .. it is very cool
:D Haha..

Hai @lyndsaybowes ... It seems you don't need away to get it all, simply click around the House you can pack in such a nice, you are great. I like that at the duck what if in join my duck. IMG_20180210_125024.jpg

Thank you for showing me your beautiful ducks, I love them!!

DQmRHFayuiDya59DDYQTxLiCMFgKLTWVywPtXaqUmfN3mmB_1680x8400.jpeg
Great shot...
what is the name of this bird in your place @lyndsay ... if in our place called "Tiong Bird" he is very good voice .. in our place many who keep the bird .. bcause he can talk like a human if we teach him ...

It sounds like they would be a similar bird. Here called "crow" or "raven"...

ohh..it's a bird a crow? I already know.. bigger than Tiong..I don't seem to see as much

Birds and poultry are interesting pets. They are animals that are active, sometimes even noisy especially if late to be fed ...

I have birds and chickens too, and it's very entertaining ... nice to know you like them also @lyndsaybowes...

wow, mr. pendock still dashing, I snagat happy to mr. pendock. thank you for always looking after them very well. the crow now wants to be a trend, but he has not been able to beat mr. pendock. very interesting @lyndsaybowes.20180210_112313.png

Thank you for loving Mr. Pendock!

20180210_113514.png

very beautiful, it seems they are all happy to be close to you @lyndsaybowes. nature is always beautiful with their existence.

mr. Pendock is very handsome @lyndsaybowes. is it as handsome as mr. Siam is there to me ??? Haha

IMG-20180210-WA0005.jpg

Awww.. Mr. Siam is a beautiful cockerel :) !!

Personally, I don't take birds like lesser creatures. I have a couple of species in my house/mini garden. And I enjoy hanging around them, chatting and getting to tell them how my day went. And d sight of them looking disinterested, minding their own business and not listening to me makes me want to scream. But then, I think again and say to myself, "they are just birds" and I laugh and memories of such events lighten my day..

Nice pictures @ladybird lol @lyndsaybowes

Wow those chickens and hens aren't they so colourful? Do you own them? Yeah been a while you last went for a walk, but unlike the shores of the seas and that duck the sea

Yes, they are @hendrix22 and my feathered family <3 <3 They give us many, many eggs every day. We are very blessed.

Poor Smokie ... how old is he and Mr. Pendock? I wonder how long he needs to wait?

Very nice photos as usual. There are millions of diamonds in the water. So beautiful. Thank you for sharing.

I also see a lot of birds in the evening when I sit in balcony of my house
It's just awesome to see those birds
Good pictures

it is nice to see that there is many people like you who care about chicken also...

Great pictures Thank you for sharing with us, are these migratory birds settling in this period in place or are they always there.
You have many chickens,
I bumped into the few days on Facebook picture of me a factory cover by a chicken company to protect it from the strange cold price of the most expensive coat of the same hen

Really cute, thanks for sharing hehehe...

very nice pictures we really enjoy your chiken story. Thanks crazy bird lady of steemit.

I have much food for all those birds. I love that sailboat pic and yes duckie has nice feet. :)))
