Unexpected visitors....

While doing the dishes after lunch....I saw some dark silhouettes out of the corner of my eye. I rinsed the soap off my hands and went to the back door to check if someone was in my yard as I was expecting a delivery from Amazon.

Imagine my shock when I saw a huge flock of turkeys (I counted twelve turkeys at least) leisurely strolling through our yard! What a sight that was!

I yelled for RG to come take a look and quickly grabbed my camera to snap the scene. Unfortunately, my camera settings were all screwed up in the big rush and most of the photos turned out blur.

I telephoned my neighbour to inform her of the presence of the turkeys and she came out to look as well. She told me that the turkeys had nested in a tree that used to be behind our backyard but the tree had since been chopped down as it was diseased and posing a threat with its falling branches. And every year around this time, the turkeys will return to this place to look for their home. Awwwww...poor turkeys!
