Pidgey and the Chick



My son Cole adores his chickens. This is his bantam hen, Pidgey, sitting protectively on her two week old chick, Murkrow, in our hay-filled chicken coop. There was another chick, Hummer, who we lost last week in an especially sad and awful way, and it wrenches my heart that I hadn't taken photos of her adorable yellow fuzzball-ness in the short time we were able to enjoy having her with us. So when it occurred to me late this afternoon that I had yet to make a photo today, the thought arose to have a mama hen and chick photo shoot. Because they grow up so fast, as all mamas know.
