Funny Selfies

After work one Friday, Lydia was at home sitting on the veranda and the

2 Happy Hens came and sat with her for some pats and attention.

Lydia took her iPhone out of her top shirt pocket and took some selfies.

Lydia's clever friend Brad had fun editing the photos using Photoshop.

This photo of 'the girls' and 'The Muppets' characters by Jim Henderson

is hilarious - Lydia reckons it is the best photo of the year!

 Nestle stands in front, with taller Chickadee

behind and Lydia in the background.

Donald Trump pays a visit and joins in the selfie fun!

 Girls just want to have fun on a Friday afternoon.

The 2 Happy Hens have their identity hidden by oranges!

Pet of the Year Competition

The 2 Happy Hens were the only 2 bird entries in the 2017 'Pet of the Year'

competition coordinated by the local newspaper and council

as part of the 'Pets Day Out' annual community event.

We were surprised to see that birds outnumbered cat entries

in the local pet competition held every spring.

There was only one cat in a total of 19 pet photo competition entries!

Unfortunately Nestle or Chickadee didn't win enough votes to 

win the 2017 'Pet of the Year' competition but it was good fun anyway!

With Chickadee's long life expectancy being a pure heritage breed hen, she'll

have plenty more chances to enter the competition and win in the coming years!
