Greens, Sky and new chix

Picked fresh green dandelion leaves and large lamb's quarter.  Excellent salad.

Today the sky is bright blue with snow on the mountains.  The air is crisp and clear.  The horses roam free munching grass and fertilizing.  Eight new chix were born to the hen who nests in the barn. She diligently teaches them scratch for bugs and seeds and gathers them under her wings for a nap.  I  rescued the stragglers left behind in the woodpile and hope for the best for all.
