Today was simply lovely. A warm day, not too hot with a gentle breeze. The broody hens and their chicks took full advantage, roaming, grazing and of course, dust bathing.
It always makes me so happy to watch youngsters of mixed ages, mingling without incident.
Is it communal, social dustbathing or organised, destruction of our orchard?
It looks like a large area that the flock have excavated, but in reality, it's a small proportion of the available space.
