Hen having a salad

I brought my hens a treat of greens today. They love it. The green stem coming from her mouth is a piece she just picked up.
Well, I heard this hen's resolution for the new year is healthy eating; her eggs are going to be lower in cholesterol. Great shot.

@anazad511 Haha! They do have a healthy diet. I wish I thought greens were a treat. Thanks for your encouragement.

Great capture Kathy clarity in hen and grass spectacularly good. Our neighbours hens often hedgehop into our garen and devour all greenery in sight the plus side is we get free eggs as a gesture of apology. :-)

Wonderful close-up... love all the detail in the feathers! Your critters sure are blessed to have you as their guardian!

@paul2782 That is good they give you eggs. Hope the hens leave some greens for you! Farmers seem to have to apologize often.

@calm Thanks, I can't wait for you and Deanna to come over to give me a new perspective. Lambing will start in late Feb.

Chickens have to be harder to capture than cats. Good job!

@bonniemac They are difficult because of all the head movement. I had to learn how to set my camera to freeze moving objects. Still do not totally understand it, but thats why 365 is good it makes you think about each shot.
@bkbinthecity @shirleytemple Thanks for your kind comments.

LOL at the comment about farmers having to apologize often. Hadn't thought about that, but it makes sense. ;-)
This is a fabulous clear shot. I SO wish I had access to farm eggs. As it is I buy cage free organic, but I don't know what the actual environment is for the hens.
