Yup. It's not pretty but chickens can fly.

G. was working on her 4-H photography project yesterday and needed an "action" shot. She thought flying chickens would make the perfect subject, proving L. is not the only creative thinker in the family.

And speaking of chickens, I'm really looking forward to Fino putting in our air conditioner this weekend for cooling off as well as the white noise. The morning sounds of Chickenland - quaint as the country farm life may be - are waking me up way too early on my days off from work.

(And just for the record, that soundclip was made from inside my bedroom at 4:30 a.m. this morning.)
