Princess has been hanging out on the Point for the last little while - the kids have been napping and watching the world
Kinderchick:
Whew!!! So good to see the chicks enjoying a feeding this morning! That was quite the storm last night & I was concerned that the chicks might not survive, without any overhead cover. Glad to see they continue to survive & thrive! ;D
