My chickens have come out to play in the afternoon sun. :) We have had three glorious days of it now, and it has been truly wonderful. Isn't it amazing how a little bit of sun can change your entire outlook on life?
Mr. Rooster is lording it over his little flock. ;) He is a recent birthday gift from my dear friend Robin, who also gave me the littlest milk glass nesting hen. The middle-sized nesting hen was a gift from the marvelous B.J., of Sweet Nothings, who is a pretty sweet lady herself. :)
Thank you so much, my friends. I love my rooster and chickens!
And they are loving the sunshine. Wishing you all some sunshine today, dear bloggers! :)

Oh! How very lovely they all are playing the sunshine! Good day to you! Cathy
ReplyDeleteHooray for sunshine except ours is still a bit too hot.
ReplyDeletethese images are so beautiful...simple and sunny, it really helps!
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing more comforting to me than a sitting hen! So sweet!
ReplyDeleteMary, I like all your little white hens and rooster! I have some of those nesting hens too, thought mine are mostly in shades of blue. Sunshine sure feels wonderful after this long snowy winter, doesn't it? And you already have forsythia in bloom! I'm hoping that ours will pop out any day! The robins have arrived, so that is a great sign of spring to come.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the sunshine wishes! It was a gorgeous day yesterday here in NC. I stepped out to the yard to garden a bit. I could have stayed out all day. Today is going to be beautiful too! The sun really does put me in a great mood!
ReplyDeleteSo lovely! Those feathered friends brought a smile to my face today! I just took down all the winter sparklies and dumped them on the dining room table yesterday...you have gotten me motivated to get them packed away so I can get my birdies out too! Happy Sunny Day to you too!
ReplyDeleteSo cheery and bright! Something about the sun makes our moods improve and our minds turn to the outside. I have so much gardening to do and we are supposed to have rain all week...
ReplyDeleteI'm excited for your photography tutorials, you always do such a great job! I'm a sunlight fan too, can't wait for some good old spring sunshine. . .Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteHow pretty they look in the sunlight on that pretty red and white tablecloth!
ReplyDeleteLove these photos! The red and white tablecloth with the milk-white chickens are just adorable together!
ReplyDeleteThanks, all!
ReplyDeleteGarden of Daisies -- I'm sorry to say that we don't actually have forsythia in bloom yet - those are faux!
how a little bit of sunshine can make a difference in how we see the word...i'm loving it! A pretty capture.
ReplyDeleteI am one who doesn't like knick knacky things but when I look at your flock and because they are special to you I look at them and smile, a warm smile that is for you. Blessings.
ReplyDeleteI just want to put a big thanks to you for doing Mosaic Mondays, you have touched many people Mary.
Beautiful! My mom has the same Spode dishes but in blue.
ReplyDeleteYes, sunshine is amazing therapy. It's out here in S. Calif. today and I'm loving it!
Sending you a virtual hug (((MARY)))) I have been reading your past posts and catching up....
ReplyDeleteTake a breath everything will work out....
You will be surprised at how often the kids come home...nothing like Mom's cooking :)
All the best,
Kathy :)

Thanks for brightening my day with pictures of light! Is that a red tower Spode plate I see under the smaller plates?
ReplyDeleteOh, the red of it all, and the golden flowers...wonderful, Mary.

My kitchen is quite the roosters nest! I just can't seem to say no to any roosters I see. They make my kitchen look so cozy! Especially my rooster pillows on the window seat.
ReplyDeleteHi Mary,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the wishes for sunshine. It's bright out right now, with more rain in the forecast. Enough already!!
I love your little chickens and roosters. I have a few myself, but there is always room for more!
I'd love it if you'd stop by for a visit sometime.
Have a good day!

Thanks for your post today, you reminded me of my grandmother who collected Chicken's on the nest or whatever they are called, she had them in every kind of glass imaginable and two different sizes as I recall, her favorite was vasoline glass...

i have those dishes and dearly love them.
ReplyDeletethe lighting and tablescapes are beautiful.

Mary...thanks for taking us 'chicks' out in the warm bit of sunlight today and sending the feeling that there's no place like home.
ReplyDeleteThey are sweet, Mary.
ReplyDeleteGray skies today but the warmth is still noticeable. And it's supposed to be lousy until next Tuesday.
I feel a trip to the mall may be in order . . .
Love them - I have one that belonged to my grandmother & it's one of my favorite things.
