You Don't See This Stuff in the City!

Papi has a variety of bird feeders in the back yard which makes for some very interesting viewing of nature from the house. Samantha is able to tell us if a cardinal is sitting out by the feeder (seen below).This summer we have also seen many turkeys around the neighborhood. Here is a male turkey trying to impress the female turkey as the cardinal looks on.
Close up of the male.
Apparently those turkeys weren't following each other around for nothing! Two weeks ago we started seeing the female walking around with 12 little turkey babies following her! Today they were out eating seed that had dropped out of the bird feeder so we were able to get a really close look at them!
