Wild Burdock and More Red Clover

This has been growing at the edge of a few barns.  I'm pretty sure is wild burdock.  The stalks are short and the leaves have hairs.  Either way, if it is burdock I can't do much with it.  We are all allergic to ragweed (just by the touch also).  I read that burdock is in that particular family of plants.

Baby Chicks



Our newest baby chicks have grown.  They are starting to get a bit of the outdoors.  They seem to be adjusting and soon we be put out with the other hens.
