Three week #chick update. They’re getting HUGE! Lots of feathers the shaggy scraggly #BlackStars are starting to show some accent colors by the ears.(they are definitely the most regal looking when mature but now… not so much.) The close up girl is Nina. The other two Black Stars are Billie and Sarah. (#JazzSingers) I moved them from the 55 gallon storage bin into a larger cardboard, PVC and sticky foil A/C tape. They’ll move to the outside coop in a week or so. #DallasTX

Three positive things for today:

#Jazz #JazzSingers #JazzVocals
1. Johnny Hartman
2. Ella Fitzgerald
3. Sarah Vaughan

Just 3 of so many.

I listen to a lot of radio. I guess I like voices.

Last week I heard an interview with this jazz singer who’s being commemorated with her own Canadian stamp.

She was so exuberant and upbeat in the interview. That I’ve never heard of her before is not so unusual, but she’s been around for a long while.

Eleanor Collins is 103.🎶
