A gaggle of birds on Bigbird's side of the flock flew in from the Houston area for a short visit. There were four in all, two cocks (Peter and David), one hen (Brooke) and one little chick (also known as Peter). The hen will be laying another egg before long.
Before the flock arrived, Dovey and Bigbird put plugs in my ears. They had learned that Peter the cock (no pun intended) might try to teach me fowl language. The hen seemed a bit indifferent towards me. She thinks Bigbird and Dovey are looney birds for adopting me.
The chick was curious, but cautious at the same time. He is a pretty bird and will make a handsome rooster some day!
I think David liked me, though he was careful not to let on.
I love my flock!
