Bird Road Trip

Finally, the much talked about bird road trip to Maryland that was conceived over a year ago has come to fruition!  Last weekend I packed up Chris & Holly and a ton of supplies, food and toys and drove them four hours to Dr. L's new house in Maryland.  Dr. L used to board them when he lived in NYC but he moved a year ago.  We hadn't seen him since.  He invited us down for a visit and offered to keep the chickens with him for a couple of weeks so yours truly could have a little break (some break so far, with cat surgery and a broken down car!).  The boys did extremely well in the car and have adjusted nicely in their temporary new home.  They have one more week in MD and then I go get them for the road trip back home.  Here are a few photos of them after we reached our destination.

Not giving up...

Mission accomplished!  Holly gets his head scratched.
