Those were last years floppy ears. This years versions have been created, and are currently growing well in utero
For the first time ever, I saw turkey's inside the town. Wild turkeys, I'm pretty sure. The adult stepped off the curb and slowly moved into the street. How did she (I guess) know I would stop? Car in the opposite direction stopped, too, and we just sat and watched the parade. Finally, all five made it safely, but very slowly, across. Drivers waved to each other and off we went.
Funny area. One side was heavily overgrown slope and the other was a few support buildings for a baseball diamond. I'm wondering if our wildlife is not as impressed with people as the used to be.

Wild turkeys are either really dumb, or supremely arrogant lol. They waddle out in front of the car all the time at the lake, taking their sweet time to cross the road. And never jump to pass them, seems there’s always a straggler trying to catch up with the flock.
Wild turkey traffic delays are fairly common around here. Seems the male prefers the road surface for showing off.

We had a turkey here, by my house, we called him Due West Tom. He was on Due West RD and he chased cars. He was killed this year (by a car) most locals knew about him and slowed for him but someone was oblivious and he met his fate
The Cheese siblings, Colby and Cheddar. They were always fighting over the hammock or struggling to both fit in it so I gave them another. Now they have two hammocks. Cheddars face says it all. She wanted the blue hammock. lol
I had no idea wild turkeys could be so bold.... I thought they were like, fair and delicate creatures that you have to make weird noises to shoot at. Could you shoot at them as they crossed the road or was that not kosher, even in season.
I guess it would not be that safe.
OMG my step-father in law has this GIGANTIC stuffed and mounted turkey (or he did) in one of his gun rooms. He had TWO gun rooms because he collected them they were all perfectly on display, and then one room: OMG what is that FIVE FOOT TURKEY DOING IN THERE.
The house was terrifying. Husband's mom was an artist too but a tortured one Like, on top of the sink she had this piece of... material and she attached all these terrifying glued like bent and beaten and hammered out of shape cutlery.; IDK if it was a thing, but I can't remember a super happy piece of art work. When I saw that one, I backed slowly and carefully away like KEEPING my eye on it the whole time.
The husband asked me if I ever would want to live in the house and I was like, "Yeah, sure, if we BLOW IT UP first, and then exorcise the rubble. That would be fine."

On this subject again. I was out working, when Gemma (ex pet lamb and mother of floppy eared lambs), came running past me. She had Ike following behind, and she of course ignored him, and went straight into my sister's rose garden
Ike finally caught up to her, swore at her in doggy language, and eventually got her moving back into the paddock where she belonged
Jessie James is what I named him. This guy has fathered so many kittens. I suspect he is the dad of all the tabby/tigers I have been trapping in another neighborhood. Finally, I caught him. He is at the clinic today and will not be fathering any more kittens. He weighs 17 lbs. Big boy
My little sweethearts. These two siblings are the most chill and relaxed kittens I have fostered.
They are arrogant, they look at you and gobble which is turkey for the finger.
Really though a turkey is an aggressive bird, a friend of mine had one on his property that would chase and attack anyone he laid his beady little eyes on.
Good morning all. the dog is doing good so far. I don't have pic of him or anything. I don't consider him very photogenic, but I must love him nonetheless.
Fingers crossed, firmly! It's gonna be interesting. I hope we hear from our realtors soon, man. I guess this stuff takes time. Meh.

Congratulations and job well done on the cat rescues, @chanelvaps ! Yeah, it's really tough when you lose any. 
Did months of animal rescue/feeding in NOLA area after Katrina and I still actually cry remembering ones that died or ones in extreme distress that we weren't able to catch and help.
I almost always peek i when not logged in but I'm becoming very worried about @Ricky Vapes and the bunnies. Are they okay? He hasn't been here for about a week.

Cheddar is very sick. Brother Colby stayed very close to her. Yesterday she went into ICU. No diagnosis yet. Two days of not eating, losing lots of weight and high fever.
thanks Tutu. It is a labor of love.Congratulations and job well done on the cat rescues, @chanelvaps ! Yeah, it's really tough when you lose any.
