The runaway hen

The chooks are fed up with being “cooped up” all winter because of the avian flu restrictions. For the past week we have found hens and cockerels that have made their way out of the polytunnel and into the run. Fair play to them. However, just now I found a hen in the sheep field

She must have gotten out of the poly tunnel then into the run and flown over several six foot high fences and into the field.
We shooed her into the greenhouse and picked her up and took her back to the flock. I expect she will escape again. Come on Defra, let the birds out of lockdown!
