I love these shots. We had dozens of chickens when I was growing up and the cats always stayed far away from them. My favorite shot is the old barn. I'm a big fan of old and abandoned buildings.
This is my brother's farm that we got to visit this weekend.
You are right Rayne, the barn is neat. It is over 100 years old.
And about the cat and chicken - I was poised with the camera to capture the confrontation. I wish it was a video camera because it was pretty funny. The cat first approached the chicken in a hunting manner. The hen's reaction was to quickly turn her back and walk away as if to say "talk to the tail feathers"!
Look at the pictures again. I think the cat knows she was insulted and is a bit embarrassed.
Lovely pictures. I can't believe the cat isn't interesed in that chicken. Totally looking away from a yummy bird, it must be a vegeterian cat.

Great photos; they seem to come alive. I especially like the photo of the cats since I am a cat person.
Happy WW!

Beautiful pics. The puppy and the gray cat are just adorable. I can just imagine what they're thinking.
Thanks for dropping by my WW.
