Last night i came home from dinner with Denise and Johnny and my wonderful neighbor was outside working in her garden. I went over to see how she was doing and she mentioned that the girls had been very fussy that evening. She was a little worried about them but they weren’t squawking as much as they were flapping around  a lot.

Earlier that day I had them out in the garden to fuss about and i noticed a lot more posturing and squabbles but i know they have to sort the pecking order. After I talked to my neighbor i went in to see if they had settled in for the night and this is what i found.

GW thought that the queen bee would take charge  on the top roost while her peons got the lower  roost…i still think Harriet is the Queen Bee but i also think she isnt as tough as she thinks she is. I love that she is right smack in the middle of the roost and the other girls are smooshed to her side.
