Adorable chicks wearing an array of colourful headwear
-
You have to take your hat off to these chicks - they certainly look the business in their stylish headwear.
The newborn fluffy friends - which are between just one day and nine days old - were dressed up and photographed by US photographer Julie Parsons and her nine-year-old daughter.
The mother and daughter duo crafted the striking hats themselves before taking a quick picture of each of the baby birds.
Ms Parsons, of Norridgewock in Maine, has been dressing up chicks with her daughter for several years now.
And they have created a whole range of chick merchandise available on their very own website, Chicks in Hats.
She said: 'The whole process only takes one or two minutes per hat and so we move rather quickly.
She added: 'My daughter wanted to make hats for our chicks. She would pop the hats on their heads and I would take the photographs.
'I make most of the hats out of fibre or yarn or craft items around the house.
'The chicks are easily amused by seeds and bits of chick food so we give them snacks and gently put hats on them while they are eating.'
The adorable batch of chicks were given a variety of hats for these wonderful pictures, with additions including wooly hats, bridal outfits and even a miniscule replica of the headwear worn by the Pope.
