I did not see Pete and Ned up and about when I went out, so I went to the barn to check on them. Of course, they were fine. They had just not gotten up yet. I am not a morning person either, so I get it. 

The sky was extra pretty this morning. There were lots of clouds in the sky.

Fred was over at the barn eating the corn from the coop chickens' feeder. I am glad to know he is still alive. 

Onyx was by the chicken feed, which surprisingly enough is where she usually is in the morning. I may never figure that one out, but that is where she likes to be. I am not sure where Athena had been, but when she heard me, she came out of her spot. I am not sure why; she does not like me much. 

I did see Sonny checking out the chicks. I am not sure how I feel about that, but there he was. 

May was in the shop looking relaxed. Being relaxed helps us heal, but how many of us are ever truly relaxed? 

Fred ended up over in the horse pasture. I got a good picture of him with the sun rays all around him. I am not sure what is going to happen with that rooster. 

Yeller came out to see me after I was calling him for a long time. In my head it was a long time, in reality, it probably was not a long time. 

May was up and moving more this afternoon. I call that a win. She was even drinking the water I put out for her. 

Fred came into the doorway of the shop to check things out. I kept him in the shop to keep him protected. He is either going to heal or he is not going to make it, but I am determined to give him a chance to see what happens. We all deserve chances to change or chances to see what an outcome in life will be. 

Noma was so relaxed I was not sure if she was okay or not. She was, but looking at her, I was not convinced. 

It was a hot day. The pigs had plenty of water for their mud holes. 

The other animals were all doing fine.
