Sunbathing Farmyard Hen

Sunbathing Farmyard Hen

 

Life doesn't get any more laid back than having the kitchen door of the holiday cottage open to let the warm morning sun in and a farmyard hen strolls in and settles herself down in the matwell without a care in the world. She was clucking with contentment and I thought she was about to lay an egg at any minute.

 

Obviously a very friendly hen! I have a feeling this was not her first time nesting in the cottage doorway as she was completely at ease with human company and she loved being warmed up as she nestled into the matwell.

 

She lay on her side and kept lifting her wing up to catch the rays of the sun.

 

She did wander around the kitchen pecking inquisitively at the floor (and walked right under the oven!!) looking for scraps.

 

When she was done, she just wandered off as easily as she wandered in.
