chicken and eggs

After we got the free eggs , now must thank the chickens .

Here's the mother hen ......

Yeah , not a pretty one with the feathers missing around the neck .
And this is the handsome partner .....cockadoodle do !

Let's take a closer look at the couple . They always come together, eat together .....

They are not huge, but have long legs .
This is another one of their friends.....the tall one.

So, these are the chickens that wonders around the backyard.

Eggs in the pot !

May 29th , 2011 ......Sunday

This is a hot Sunday , and working at the backyard, here's what we found .

Among these empty flower pots , a pleasant surprise ! We found chicken eggs !

Like these.....and there were all 5 of them !

Days ago, the mother hen has been visiting . I have suspected it to lay eggs , but cannot find anything . Little did I suspect that the hen would lay eggs in the empty flower pots.

The eggs are small compared to the normal eggs , of course.

Comparing it with a normal egg, papaya and chilies, this ' kampung egg ' is whiter, and smaller .
Putting it in the egg compartment in the fridge , you can see how small it is.  Here :

See the small, white " kampung chicken " eggs from our backyard !
Thanks to the mother hen . Bravo ! 

Happy Wesak

17 May 2011

It's Wesak again, the thrice sacred day for the Buddhists worldwide. The weather was beautifully sunny in the morning .

When the Anthem of Unity was played, the Buddhist Flag was flying high with the Jalur Gemilang .

Devotees pay respect to the sacred Bodhi tree .....

or lighting oil lamps to remind us the light of Wisdom that dispels darkness....

It was a beautiful Wesak.
Let us make aspiration on this auspicious day that the world is peaceful . May all beings be well and happy always.

May the sasana continues .......

and may we attain nibbana eventually.
