For months I've been thinking to clear away and replant the spaces fenced off for the Green curtain. I got started a few days ago and the birds were quick to start enjoying the new dirt with fresh pickings, I guess there are a lot of worms and bugs and grubs for them along with any remaining green leaves..

String and ladder left out to help keep a falcon away... Yesterday a few quick attempts had the hens screaming and the chicks hiding under dried weeds and drying sticks.. The Jidori birds are quick and smart, half-wild I guess..
