Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

Morning wet on my lily pad second cup of coffee.
Fall is here fell all over the place.

Good Morning, Pond!

This is one of my July chicks. I just can’t decide if it’s a pullet or cockerel. It really doesn’t have much of a comb, and the tail doesn’t scream cockerel to me, but those red wing patches are making me wonder…

Good Afternoon Pond!
It’s starting to feel pretty autumny around here as well. Leaves are turning, we’ve had a few cooler days and frost the past 3 nights. No rain though. I think it’s been a couple of months since it has rained.

Pretty bird! But I agree the wing patches look suspect

Good afternoon pond! Fall is definitely here too. It's all over the ground and has been rather cold at night. We were taking some senior pictures the other dayand you can see it everywhere in the background!

I may have missed the auroras but I did manage to get a picture of the comet. We could see it without the camera but night mode made it more visible

I am going to say pullet. That wing coloring is not real bright as I would expect on a twelve week old cockerel.

I would make a third on pullet.
We made a stop at the feed store to get layer and mash.
Into the town get a few things done.
Sun has come out not getting real warm 65 so far.
Take a few days to dry out but normal fall.

Did anyone else get to see the comet?

Nice!

I saw nothing.

Up here at my house has been lots of overcast.

I actually think male. The feathers at the base of the neck look like they are starting to bend/ be soft as they are in males.
