It's Tuesday

Can you believe it, another beautiful day! Night temps 24 deg. Day temps in the 40's. Now here are a couple shots you don't see in February very often. First I've seen lots of buckets on the trees to catch maple sap. Sap runs when the night time temps are below freezing and the day time temps are above freezing. We've had some like that lately.
Then it's amazing, but everywhere you look there are plenty of clothes hanging on the clothes lines. I love that smell of fresh laundry after it's been dried outside.. But in February?
I spotted this big Eagle this morning about 1/4 mile from our house. I'm glad they are sticking around this winter.
I wanted to show you this egg that our son Steve got from one of his hens last Saturday. The egg on the right is an extra large, and the one on the left is as big as a duck egg! That must have hurt! LOL It was a BIG double yolker. Granddaughter Becca had it for breakfast.
Happy Tuesday!

Macro Monday

Even though I've posted this picture on our other Blog Woodynook View Egg Farm, I thought I'd show a close-up of my favorite egg color. This egg is layed by a Copper Maran. Their eggs are a very dark brown and have a variety of black spots.
