The celebrations are over, 2018 has passed and 2019 is now with us for another 364 days. However you celebrated the turn of the year I hope it was fun, safe and with good family or friends. I had a quiet evening watching a few movies, and then an early night because today again I would be driving to see relatives, this time my Aunt an hour North in York.
It was a visit mostly dominated by Chickens, they have a good selection and at this time of year the stable food of bugs and insects is a bit thin on the ground - so they get fed and just associate any bi-ped nearby as the next feeder and sort of lunge at you!
This makes them braver then your average chicken, in summer they run when you even look at them - now they stare you down!
The Cockerill are more proud, and keep a safe distance.
I found an interesting tree bearing fruit, it's a funny time of year for berries to be so abundant on a tree.
I met some four legged friends as well, they were lively and eager to go for a walk.
Or for sniffing out new things, walking or sniffing whichever would come first.
The Chickens though were the star of New Years Day, full of character they were all eager to show off their talents in the hopeful return of some food.
With an eye always on the prize, they would wait diligently or just crowd in forcing the point.
Working in pairs helps, but the more the merrier.
New Years day with the Chickens, and a few relatives as well - nothing better when the weather was mild and sunny, 2019 certainly started on a positive for me let us all hope it continues that way.
