Waiting For You

Posted on November 26, 2017 by hernibs

Mocha meows – 7:30, time to get up. Light the fire, feed, play, empty her en-suite. Six hens cluck at coop doors, wanting scraps, fresh water and morning freedom. Humming bird hovers at the feeder, and Stellar Jay pecks at … Continue reading →

Early Morning Illusions

Posted on March 11, 2016 by hernibs
