On the homestead blog, this week was a busy one for the flock, with a possible first duck egg, me wading in the pond, broody chickens, and the heron and a flock of geese visiting. #FlockFriday 🦆🐓

On the Dejus YouTube channel: eleven geese took an hour break from their migration in our pond. Our ducks were curious.
Today’s moment of cuteness: a GIF of a Steller’s Jay drinking from the feral cats’ heated water dish (captured via Camect’s handy GIF export).
On the homestead blog: your cat update this week includes the trials and successes of Bella, birds making poor life choices, and cold wet stuff. Read the post for more! #Caturday 🐈
On the way home yesterday, hundreds of Canadian geese having a pitstop on the side of the road.
On the homestead blog: an assortment of ducks, chickens, and hummingbirds in your weekly flock update! #FlockFriday 🦆🐓
On the Dejus YouTube channel, a slow-mo video of eight hummingbirds at the feeders, plus one hummer using its beak and feet to dislodge two others.
It’s below freezing overnight now, so I’ve put out the hummingbird feeder heater, the heated dog bowl, and the heated cat bowl. Plus the chickens and ducks have water heaters, too, all to prevent the water from freezing. ❄️
