We had been shifting the cattle this afternoon and I had been down the paddock with my camera. When we got back, Chook decided to go and chop down a huge flannel leaf plant by the drain (in amongst the native trees). He came back a while later looking like this! The branch had broken, the bank collapsed and he ended up headfirst in the drain. Fortunately he wasn't wearing his hearing aids and the axe didn't cause an injury. Unfortunately he lost his glasses and also I didn't get to record the event as it unfolded... He came back laughing that I had missed such a great photo op!
Another pruning whoops moment lucky another one without damage, that you can laugh about after the event, two great record images for us all to share Dianne:)
Gosh, he looks as if he had quite the adventure! So glad that he came through unscathed and with sense of humour intact! Great images, post-incident, even if you missed the incident itself!
Well he has a very cheerful face….a close shave I reckon & sadly it will cost him new glasses unless he finds them when he goes back fir another look when the light is better….quite a story to tell…..good job he could climb out!
