It was a little difficult to round them up early to go back in the coop to roost, since I was headed to the after-tour party, and didn't trust that they'd just go back on their own. Just a little new parent jitters to keep my charges safe, I suppose.
The folks taking the tour seemed to enjoy them.

Interesting tidbit of trivia for you. Someone (forgot who) asked me yesterday what the collective noun for a group of guinea fowl is. I didn't know, but we did talk about one of the cool ones - a murder of crows.
According to Wikpedia, the collective noun for a group of guinea fowl is a rasp. Other fun ones, just from the birds: a parliament of owls, an ostentation of peacocks, a charm of goldfinches, a murmuration of starlings, and an Exaltation of Larks.
