I have a habit of looking out the dining room doors as I pass through. Imagine my surprise when I found the family of turkeys strolling through the yard feeding on our "salad bar"! They have been a constant morning sighting for several weeks. This was the first time I had witnessed them so close to the house, they are usually in the pasture south of the house. Before I grabbed the camera they were actually beneath the bird feeder in foreground. They are interesting creatures, and gutsy too--turkey season opened September 15th!
One of the neighbors corrals butts up next to our west fence. This summer its been the home to their bull and a palomino. Whenever we are out in the yard the horse will come over to the fence to see "whassup". Perhaps it is a habit created because whenever we see him we feed him apples? Can't tell his age, but he is a beautiful creature. The bull? He isn't quite as congenial ... he likes to hang out near the shelter and the hay bale.
