Wet,wet,wet

Chris took this photo this morning at dawn, after he had walked the dogs. They all sneak up to bed with me for an hour before I get up and that is their big treat for the day. The weather has been so bad today, I should have stayed in bed, but as Chris was working in the office, I have been out all day, clearing the paths and the drive a particularly dirty and wet job.
I took a brief look at last year's blogs, which all mention problems with the weather. We have had two terribly wet years, which have not only ruined many of the growing crops, but has decimated the native butterfly population

Anyhow I have decided to keep the five of Broody Nolan's chicks. Four seem to be female (at the moment) and I suspect the little bruiser Grey (right) is a cockerel They will be joining the ducks in their run. and seeing that they are being oficially adopted, I have named them all.(after Poseidon Adventure characters)-
