second egg


once i came home from mexico i did get the thrill of finding an egg in the nesting box.   i was so excited!  there it was. our second egg.  simple perfection.  resting there in the hay, a tiny gift.  a wonder really. 


i won't go into the anatomy of an egg or how the hen's body creates the egg,  but it is amazing.  and i cannot get over how fulfilling it is to collect eggs from the hens i raised.  my hens.

they are laying.  so i must be getting it right :)
