The Huckleberry Jump


One never expects to pull into the driveway greeted by chickens jumping up and down. I thought they were just happy to see me, but I would be wrong. As I got out of my car and moved in closer I realized that the huckleberries were ripe and they had cleaned off the lower branches and now had to use their well-rehearsed jumping skills to reach the berries on the upper limbs. Really this has been a skill that they all strive to master due to the fact that the highest jumper gets the treat first and more to boot! The chicken logic…… Use your skills and take them out of the box you may get huckleberries or even better!
