Have you ever heard of a guinea fowl adopting a young boy and defending him from all threats? Would a cheese-loving crow that''s an undercover packrat get your attention? Is a bearded Silkie chicken that enjoys watching All My Children on TV something you''d find intriguing? Then you might also like to hear about a vanload of show chickens that sing lustily along with the car radio only when it plays the song "Duke of Earl." Or how about the pony addicted to ice cream ... or the mama dog who kidnaps baby chicks. If you''d enjoy reading about these and other wild and domestic animals, you''d probably like my book, Charminy Farm: A Bird''s-Eye View. This is a nonfiction book about my family''s life on our small semirural farm in Wisconsin. Our family was involved in raising and exhibiting fancy poultry, dogs, and horses and in rescuing various forms of wildlife.
