This was the first time I got to make Christmas dinner myself, and I had to make it 2 days early because I work Christmas Eve and day. It was a little interesting. While I went out to ask my husband something, I heard my neighbor's goat hollering. I knew right away that his head was stuck in the fence... again. He does that quite a bit. The goat was not being too cooperative, the chickens thought I was there to feed them and kept trying to peck me, their dog was trying to lick me in the face when I knelt down to help the goat, and the rooster came after me jumping up and beating me with his wings. Fortunately Vance was over there by then and helped get the rooster away and we freed the goat. Then I could go back and try to finish dinner. I think their turkey could smell that I was cooking turkey too because he was all excited.

This is the rooster that had it in for me.

Mean looking, isn't he?
The bird feeders have been very busy. I have had house finches, Carolina wrens, tufted titmice, red headed woodpeckers, and some gold finches too. I am very excited at what new birds I will see in our new place!
