This post is in response to a comment from my friend Nan, of Letters from a Hill Farm.
Though not all are what you would call songbirds, these are birds that I have seen and heard frequently this spring. I know I am forgetting a few.
Mostly I see and hear my brood of barred rock hens and their ringleader, the rooster. People think of roosters as noisy, and at the break of dawn perhaps they are, but you haven't heard a ruckus until you've heard one of our "girls" lay an egg!
