Mr Bark Blockhead

I heard grumbling  coming from the yard this morning when I let Semper out to do his business. It was a deep grumble, kind of grouchy sounding too! So I went to investigate.......
The sound got much louder as I approached the chicken coop....
 Ah Ha....it was coming from Mr Bark Blockhead!!! He did not sound the least bit happy.
 
 So I inquired of him "What pray tell is wrong Mr Bark? Didn't you sleep well last night"? Hmpf, he scowled, "How could anyone get any sleep with Mr Slate over there crowing his dern tootin' head off all night and early morning long"?
 Here's the mug shot of the offending rooster, Mr Slate to be exact.
 "Why did you feel the need to crow incessantly as to curl the bark of Mr Bark Blockhead"? I asked.
 He replied, "How could I not crow? I have this wonderful new coop that Farmer Toby built for me and my lovely wife Silver"? "I had to let everyone know how utterly happy I am with my new digs!"
 Why even Mr Scarecrow was impressed with the new coop.
 Even tho he prefers his surroundings much better.
"To each his own" he said.
If having a grumpy tree face for your favorite tree strikes your fancy  you can get your very own by looking here.....

Just be sure not to plant him too close to the chicken pen :)

    Oooh, I love Mr. Bark Blockhead! I really want to get one of these for my trees, I think they are so funny. Can't blame him at al for being grumpy after hearing the rooster crow!

    Anyway, it’s nice to “meet” you! Hope you can pop by my blog sometime to say hi…

  6. LOL! That was cute. I've seen those tree face things for sale and always thought they'd be fun.

  7. That is so cute! My mom and step dad would love to have one of those. That is just their kind of whimsy. They have a Christmas wreath that comes alive when you walk up to the door too. Ha! Love your chicken coop most of all! You're so lucky to have the space for them and it looks like you've got some beautiful chickens!
