We’re still very taken with our new bantams, but just to show that we haven’t lost our affection for the Ixworths, here we are handing out the last of the blackberries to them. Blackberries are one of the very few treats that the cockerel won’t share. They’re just too good …
But I’m afraid that the bantams were the object of most admiration from our family visitors, including our little granddaughter, who found that bantams love blackberries too. So here’s a simple gallery of pix:

They’re much enjoying the fine September weather, and we’re hoping that it lasts for a while before the wet and muddy days set in.
