I went out to the garden to pick beans and whatever else might be ready to harvest. The sunshine and blue sky added to the warmth of the task. A occasional breeze added to my comfort level.
While in the garden I heard the birds chirping and singing. Occasionally I heard a distant goose honking. The endearing sounds of the farm surrounded me.
Near the garden is a fenced-in area suitable for our growing chicken population. I could tell that the cocks were maturing. Every few moments one of the fifty young roosters experimented with his new found ability to croak out a song.
I got my harvest and enjoyed the new sounds in our farm yard.
As they grow, the roosters’ melodies well grow in confidence and volume.
I have a question for you. How would you like to wake up to 51 roosters greeting the dawn every day?
Well, that is life here on Heritage Farm.
If you would like a card featuring a rooster, see our store.

To answer your question at the end, I definitely would like it. it’s better than traffic! Plus, it’s just so funny to hear them as they are just starting!
