Sounds of the Morning

At 5:15 this morning the coyotes started to yip and howl. The donkey replied with loud braying. The wind whistled through the trees and snow pellets pinged against the windows. So much for quiet country living.

Running

Running on rail trail. Little rain. No one else out.

Snow

Snow yesterday morning. Gone by noon. Just felt cold today.

Rooster

Here is the first photo of our new rooster. Names suggested so far include Rudy, Roary, Ko-ko-dee. Do you have suggestions?

New Post

In spite of best intensions somehow this blog gets left out of many of my days . . . as is obvious. However, we have a new animal that needs to be celebrated this morning. No photo yet but coming soon. This morning as I went out the door I was greeted by a sound from my very distant past, the crowing of a rooster. I bought a rooster from a farm near Dundas yesterday and brought it home last evening. It should add some neat sounds to our mornings. I have missed that sound for years and years.
