Tonight is a full moon. Here is a picture that J took of a few moons past. This is a picture of the moon peeking behind the barn. You really notice a full moon when you live out in the country. The otherwise dark sky shines with the reflection of the sun.
On Christmas Eve, for the first time, I helped J put the "chickens to bed." The coop was cold but not freezing. The birds did not seem to mind the recent drop in temperature. J turned off the light and only the reddish, orange glow from the heater could be seen. At first, the chickens are clucking and making lots of noise. Within a few minutes, the clucking had stopped and most of the hens were completely silent. One hen was snoring. But it was unlike any human snore I've ever heard. It sounded the most like the snore of Snuffleupagus from Sesame Street.
