~ 87 ~ Walk With Me: Seaweed Icicles & Chickens
Isn't This Incredible?
Nature is Always Beautiful
“If you truly love nature, you will find beauty everywhere.” ― Vincent van Gogh
And The Big Question I Know Is On All of Your Minds...
Buddy? Ew...I heard that what she has might be contagious! -Hercules
Whoa, what's this...Smokie's on the Inside?
When Mr. Pendock is away, I shall play. Here ladies, have some more of these treats.-Big Smokie
I haz all the bitches and I feed them all the treats...
Enter Pendock!
I believe someone outside of the chicken run is calling my name. I better go see what they need.
See you later Smokie, you bitch. -Mr. Pendock
Does this make me one of the #ChickenBitches?
Yes, unfortunately it does. But at least you're not a...
I Took A Video Today Too
Ok, That Was Pretty Lit, I Know, I Know...
Here are a few of today's walks by Steemians who got out there in the world, and took us with them!
See life through their eyes.

Awesome babe!
It's 2:00am and I was just going to hit the hay when I saw my great friend Lyndsay had dropped a post. I never get to comment normally until hours after so I'm pleased to see you after 1 minute. 😉
I can't believe the temperature dropped off so quick I may get my snowman soon eh!?
Great pictures babe and a chicken video as a bonus, I'll watch it later.
Is my chicken in it or off crushing the rebellion?
Night, night babe, catch ya tomorrow ❤️
Aww!! Yay!! 2 am eh? You're up late, it's great to see you, happy Saturday night!! :) Darth Layer, hiding out as always, plotting no doubt...I'm not sure what, but I will find out one day!
I really enjoy your pictures and videos. but, there is little that makes me disturbed the image on the 14th point.
That #donkey disturbs us too :)
Wkwk..
Thank heavens no one records my conversations with the chicken and quail, I think the men with the white coats would quickly show up! They do know the "chick chick chick" that I have always used when I hatch birds. They soon associated with feeding time and when they free ranged and got spooked, it always lured them back to the chicken house. Well, the chickens, I don't think the quail would return like that.
However, the other day, being distracted by the cold and wanting to get the birds done quickly so I could get back inside, I did not latch the quail house tight. Later that day @winstonalden said to me, "Wait, there is more than just Rodderick outside the pen" (The wild quail is Rodderick) And I saw the door flapping in the wind.
When I went out I had to laugh because only a couple were outside the rest were peeking from the open door, wondering, "What is out in that great world? I think we'd better stay here under our heat lamp where food and water is always on hand".
I was hoping it would have allowed Rodderick to hop in and move in with the quail, as he is always trying to get in. I saw two, a roo and a hen, and when I called "Chick chick" the hen quail came to me I scooped her up but the roo, hid behind the chicken house. SO I just left him.
Later that day he and Rodderick were sitting side by side outside the quail run. I was happy Rodderick could actually touch his little friend instead of just peering at him through the screen. But, when I went out the tame roo quail let me pick up him neat as a pin, whilst Rodderick took wing. SO, Rodderick is still free but pining for captivity, unaware of how to get in there with all the food and heat lamp.
SO much ice. WE had a miserable cold yesterday, and the waves began to offer up little cyrstaline bits onto the shore, but luckily today it warmed up and we had rain, glorious rain and it smelled like Spring!
I hope you are feeling better and your buckets and water pistols are free flowing once again. And once again, I have writ a novel in your comments. (You have your own blog) I am sure you are thinking ;)
I love your blog extensions! I couldn't live without em! Rodderick sounds like quite the "special" guy hahahahahaa!! We'll have to do all we can to not let those men in the white coats anywhere near us, or our feathered family.
I'm so so so glad it's thawing there and that you smelled Spring! That brings me hope! As for here, I got my tallest pair of wellies out, the basement is having its first flood :) :) :) Pouring rain all over the semi-frozen ground for 12 hours now...I don't smell spring, but I have a spring or three...in our basement. The only good part is that it happened in the morning before Brendan went to work so he set up the pump for me, YAY!! I hate trying to man handle that heavy assed fireman hose! Wow..that sounded bad...
I like that :blog extension. Yes, The white coats with the extra long arms are never far away, that's why I only speak aloud about a quarter of what I am thinking ;)
We are supposed to get more snow, but I just won't believe it. I'll keep wandering around planning my Garden and dreaming about walk Spring walks and the return of the Peepers. I did plant some toms and peppers yesterday, so my windowsill is starting to fill with little hopes of Spring.
I never mentioned how amazing your frozen seaweed was. I knew it from the photo before I even began to read, we had the same. And we had tons of that very same seaweed. Do you ever use any of yours for the garden? We use the salthay and the dried grass for our path to the beach each year (it;s because we are cheap but here in New England we call it thrift ;) )
I'm so sorry about your basement. You don't seem to put out, so is it the norm? Does it happen every year? That is horrible. We just have a creepy ole cellar here at Toad Hall, but we're lucky it hasn't flooded, but one side of the house, where I am keeping the quails and chickens this winter, always gets a giant pond there when it rains. That's probably why this house has a half cellar and not a basement, as it'd definitely would flood over there. Good luck with your big hose...now who sounds inappropriate? Should I put NFSW or whatever it is on my comment.?
Bwa hahahhaa!! Hendrix was man handling the big hose all on his own today lololol!! Yes, we're very used to the late winter floods, it's par for the course, and since it's a rental and the price is so inexpensive we don't sweat it, just keep everything down there up on tables.
Your poor little quail pond...would be such a mess!!
Similar weather is happening here right now in michigan. We have had a warmer mid week followed by a very cold weekend. Has made for some slippery roads today with the small snowfall!
Picture of nature trapped in ice has always been one of my favorite subject matters as far as photography goes. So pure and artistic.
Thanks for sharing, enjoyed very much!
I hope everyone was safe out there on the roads! It can be so treacherous! Thank you for enjoying my little walk today @memesteemit :)
Of course! Made it to and from my bowling league safe. Thanks!
This post is hysterical—because of your procrastination diploma and commentary on the chickens, but then that video! You got me giggling with the crow sounds and bok-boking at Smokie but I burst out laughing at “you’re a MAAN!” in your stuffed up voice Hahahaha. This makes my night :)
Totally agree @mtnmeadowmomma 😂
Aww, I'm truly honoured that you enjoyed the video :) Thank you so much for telling me beautiful @mtnmeadowmomma!
"...If the sun is shining, it's a good day"- sounds like a good mantra.
Once again, Mr Pendock saves the day by intimidating other intruders who want in on the action. Lucky for big smoke though, he still got a chance to fluff his stuff to a few of the ladies who were interested. And yes, there is just something so humorously cute about chickens with fluffy butts😁.
Nature sure is beautiful .
Have a great day, cheers!
Mr. Pendock is a Legend, thank you for recognizing that ahahhaaa! <3 You have a great day too @ubermensch!
Hahaha......... You are not alone in this, I am also One hell of a procrastinator but I hope to change, stuffs lying everywhere. This post just reminded me I have some tidying the do.
I am glad the chicken cuties are doing well despite the cold. And I am gladder that my 'mom' is fully recovered and back on her feet. Welcome back ma.
So, did you do your tidying? Hehehe...
I did a little ma. So much to be done but I will take it bit by bit.............
But I pray I don't accumulate much more before I am done Hahaha. Thank you for asking.
HAHA I love your chicken shenanigans! And the imagery is stunning. You had a lot of rain over there and with the melting.... goodness... Id be on my ass about 95% of the time just trying to walk around all that. Im a bad skater btw, just putting that out there. Your chickens would laugh at me if they saw me... just sayin. yep its that bad. And nature, keep doing your thing. I love it! Thank you for sharing and for the great picks. You captured it beautifully
Thanks so much for coming along on another walk @foxyspirit :) I'm a bad skater too, if you go slow enough it all works out though!
This is really fun, I should be thank you instead lol
see his attention when he felt danger on his females to protect them he is like a man
I think we have men these days who don't have this jealous and leader personality
I really liked that
I bow and raise my hat to this rooster
Mr. Smokie sends his highest regards to you HatMan! :) :) Thank you for the support of his manliness!
ha ha..ya mee too...what is wonderful
"It doesn't matter how cold or windy it is out, if the sun is shining, it's a good day"
Every blog has a special sentence that make it deserve in the eyes of readers and that sentence differ from one to one according to our different tastes and for me that sentence of your grandma is the word of this blog
I think she is so wise and I wrote this word in my notebook because I think it deserves a lot
Also I'm happy to see your bitches again in this WalkWithMe because I missed them
Happy to see you promoting my #3 walkwithme in your post
you really made my day my kind friend
greetings to you and to your good husband @hendrix22
I'm so happy that this episode pleased you @hatemmkh! :) I had you in mind the whole time... <3 And there will be a sequel coming tonight :D xo
