It's strange but your birds give off the attitude of pride almost to the point of conciet when they pose for you. You really couldn't be photographing them any better. Seems they are all free range, not much problem with coyotes or dogs? There's a nice softness to the edges of this one.
A fine looking gal Martha is; and a good model, I imagine she works for chicken feed.:)
A good capture Galatea and great composition. Nice colours and lighting on your scene.
