There once was an ugly duckling/chook

Chooks go through a moult this something I did not know handsome do it more gracefully than others I Blipped one of our chooks mid moult and she was the ugly duckling as can be seen but now as can be seen she is beautiful again.
All she needs to do now is start laying eggs!

She was obviously feeling camera shy today as she gave me the runaround while trying to take the shot.

Yet another beautiful winters day with clear blue skies again this morning was just 5 degrees and odd patches of frost but later it was a light breeze and 16 degrees.
