Nice pics Dutches. Those turkeys wear me out in the garden. We've been watching several humming birds at our feeders. Plus adult and fledgling cardnials, finches, and Downey woodpeckers. Plus several red belly woodpeckers. Fun watching the little ones.
He looks a bit thin, fatten him up and then make a VLT. Venison, lettuce and tomato sandwich.

My wife spent a lot of time trying to get a good picture of those in Hawaii. She did manage to get some good pictures.

I just crank up my tractor and they come. Once they come they usually eat bugs all day. Saw one eat a whole, pretty big Toad yesterday. Wish I would have gotten that picture. These are all from inside my Camper through double pane tinted windows. Not ideal but I don't spook them away like this.......
I just planted a few corn this year for munching on, not for canning. The weeds were looking as prolific as the corn so I weeded a bunch. Yesterday morning when I went out a few of the stocked were leaning way over. I thought maybe I loosened them too much when I weeded. A few minutes later, hubby said I didn't do it. Deer tracks right through the middle and they helped themselves to a few green beans too. Dirty buggers.
@Dutchs what great pictures!

We had a black bear walk through Mom's parking lot. That's the closest I've seen to the house, about 20'.
not quite so exotic here, we have wood pigeons and lots of smaller birds that come to our "feeding station" in the garden, also field mice, butterflies are very absent this year although I did see a cabbage white the other day, hornets and bees pay a visit.
