marsh hen

The landscape looks something like the marsh behind the Toys ‘R’ Us where Tony Soprano might bury a body in Jersey.

Sometimes in the case of large plants, cones have been known to occur on the tips of the branches of the Marsh Horsetail.

Herbert Marsh, professor of divinity in the university of Cambridge, England, died.

Out of the darkening sky rang the twanging call of a night-hawk, and the cluck of a dozing hen sounded from the foliage overhead.

The hills disappear some miles above this city, and henceforward to the sea all is flat and tame as a marsh.

What can be prettier than a brood of chickens with a good motherly hen, like the one in this picture!
