About three weeks ago, we had a sweet little pair of guineas wander into our downtown neighborhood. They walked around eating up nasty bugs, jumping over mudpuddles and sitting on the neighbor’s green shed and singing loudly while he tried to eat breakfast. They grew brave enough to try crossing the road, but one rainy day was too great a risk… Now we are down to one lonely little guinea hen. She cried for the first three hours and is setting out on the business of eating up all the bugs on her own. RIP Guinea #1!

I like your illustration!!!
BTW this is an Aimee Mann’s song, right?
Thank you! I have it stuck in my head in Harry Nilsson’s voice, but I looked it up and Aimee Mann has a cover too.
Oh, nooooo!!!!! This is tragic. I love guinea fowl. They have their own way, strange and beautiful. I told my husband that someday when we live far out in the country I will have guinea.
