Good evening,
So far one morning of drizzle, but sun out in the afternoon again, my host mentioned that last years March break House sitter never saw sun in the two weeks they were here.
Saw a lovely pair of Wood ducks on Como Lake, there were also some Mallards and it was interesting to see the Wood duck male strategically positioning himself between the Mallard drake and his lady

Raining this morning, goats hate it. The little horse loves it. The chickens don't seem to notice, bedraggled bunch. Still laying about a dozen a day. Still got the timer on, but changed it to come on 5 am or so, instead of adding on at the end of the day, they go to bed better it seems. My one egg buyer is happy to take all my extras at $4 a doz. Thinking about posting hatching eggs on kijiji again this year, as I seem to have a supply now, thinking 15 a doz again.

And show my ignorance, KB, what is a BSW?
