~IN THE STILL OF THE NIGHT~

In the still of the night...while I slept snug in my bed
an intruder found it's way into the chicken
 coop......A discovery I made early this morning... my hens were all accounted for, but Ramon... my banty rooster was no where to be seen... his beautiful tail feathers lay scattered about ...feeders were overturned...bits of egg shell mixed in with pine shavings... clear evidence of a struggle... sadly one in which Ramon could not survive...Ramon, my brave little rooster... thank you for saving the lives of my girls... your girls...We will miss
 you...Godspeed my friend...
