More birds in the yard

I decided to focus on roosters today. Here is a New Hampshire rooster. Here he is scouting for his ladies. Scrappy, the bantam rosecomb, is behind him.

Here is a Rhode Island Red rooster.
They both have lunch with some New Hampshire hens.
Scrappy is looking for lunch too.
White leghorn rooster. Those tail feathers! But like all leghorns he is as jumpy and skittish as a leaf in the wind. Beside him is a bantam cochin hen.
Here we have a group of male muscovy ducks, and Luther turkey. They are monsters. But if you look closely, you can see my bantam Speckled Sussex mama in the lower left. She is now in the barn with her chicks and a small turkey poult. They run around the barn during the day and sleep in wood shavings in a rubbermaid tote at night for warmth.
