Eggstremely well-done and well-eggspressed. If this view was taken with a pair of cannons, rather than Canons, it's a wonder these birds weren't scrambled in the process :-) Very nice.

These are our six Buff Ophenington chickens, they are reddish buff in color so I converted to B&W to avoid very oddly colored birds. They were hungry the other evening and decided to came to the porch steps. Steve did not like the business end of the top ones but that is the important end for eggs.
I call it Higglety, pigglety from the nursery rhyme -
Higglety, pigglety, my fat hen,
She lays eggs for gentlemen.
Gentlemen come every day
To see what my fat hen doth lay.
Sometimes nine, and sometimes ten.
Higglety, pigglety, my fat hen.
Hope you enjoy, I hope I did not rush the process. It was taken with the Cannon 590s Twin-rig, SDM, SPM, iPhoto, Irfanview.
Best Regards,
Betty
