Yes, he’s chattering at the birds.

As they wandered off, a roadrunner appeared and all but chased them! Must be nesting nearby.

These are two thirds of the new chicks. The black/gray ones are Jersey Giants, the pale yellow ones are Americanas, the brownish ones are Rhode Island Reds, and the one with the awesome cranial racing stripes is a Guinnea Hen. (The remaining third are all Guinnea Hens, but haven’t moved outdoors yet.)
They live in the new super-secure section of the coop, which is really just a close-fitting room divider with a flip top lid. There had been a treat-on-a-string thing hanging from said lid, but they finished it off. When my partner was removing the hanging plastic core of it, they started playing with the string, so she left it. They don’t seem to have stopped playing with it yet, and that is not the end that ever had any food attached to it.
WARNING: Their chirping is leveled at foreground volume. Headphones cranked loud might make you cringe, and speakers cranked loud might cause [un?]intended acceleration in nearby pets.

I cranked it up for my partially-deaf cat Tasha, and her eyes got sooo wide!

When I was cleaning up the audio I would occasionally push it to the speakers just to watch Yahweh react. He’s used to being around chickens, though. Sounds of animals he’s never met before, if they’re recorded well enough, give some truly hilarious reactions.

One of my hummingbird feeders lost a bee guard and is now mostly feeding bees. They were crawling down the tube into the reservoir and getting trapped inside when the sugar water level dropped enough, so I blocked the tube with some pieces of cable tie. They act like a wick, and the bees drink without getting into the feeder itself.

So, this has been happening lately. Got a family of five of these guys currently living under my house.
This guy was no more than five feet away when I took this.

Years ago I watched our three chickens pounce on a stupid pigeon and eat it. Not quite as weird as bird-on-mammal action, but still disconcerting.

Lebowski, or as he’s usually know, the Dude. Named so because of his abiding skills, first identified as a kitten. Abiding continues to be a strength, eight years later.

The orange one lost the bed to the fluffy grey one and decided he was laying there anyway, regardless of the lack of room. He then proceeded to ooze his way into posession of most of the bed.

Eh, dinosaurs eating mammals is the natural order of things.
