Painting

Mr. Natural painted my bead room today--pink even.  Actually it was much
pinker than the paint showed on the can or the colorstrip.  We were going
for a pale beige with a hint of pink. So we we got more pink than we
bargained for.  I plan to tone the whole room down by adding light beige
accents.  (I think!)  And some lacy ivory curtains.  After all the beads
get in there, you won't even notice the a bit too pink walls.   

The above pics were snapped as we looked out the window and saw
the "Girls" rolling in the dirt.  The leaves are pretty thick; that's why
there are so few.

We were visited by the pileated woodpecker, and while he was busily
throwing seeds he didn't want on the deck, the chickens were climbing
the stairs to get the discarded seeds.  They were noisy.  I thought they
would disturb the woodpecker, but he paid them no mind.  Chickens
and a pileated woodpecker on the deck at the same time.  It was quite
a sight.

All for tonight
