I'm Telling You, Mrs. Tweedy, Those Chickens Are ORGANIZED!!!!

Y'all ever seen Alfred Hitchcock's movie, The Birds?

I feel like i am in that movie.

I got a canner running (tomatoes) on the back porch, and keep walking out there to check the pot.

Every time i do, there is another one of those hens out there. 
First there was one, then two, and just now three of them.

They appear to be gathering for the mass knocking that is bound to commence. 

Haven't gone up on the porch, yet.
Guess they are waiting for everyone to assemble.

This picture was taken after last evening's knocking.
Note the attempted air of nonchalance.
