Hen Pen the pheasant has been a constant companion while I’ve been gardening today. I even picked her up to move her out of the greenhouse when she’d forgotten how she got inside. She was completely unbothered.

@moonrabbit lol I can promise you they’re not my feet.

She is lovely. I was thinking today that if you want the gentle companionship of a chicken without all the stuff that goes with keeping chickens, taming a pheasant is the way to go. She seeks us out in the garden. It’s quite strange but very nice.

@moonrabbit I posted a video of her dust bathing in the greenhouse the other day. She does like it in there, though I’m going to have to keep her out once things start growing. She had a lovely time again today (surrounded by my rubbish).

You realise when you chuck her out of the greenhouse, you're going to end up building her her own little greenhouse to bask in?
