The Birds







No not quite a scene from the Alfred Hitchcock movie The Birds, but it is spring that is just around the corner that is on most people’s minds. Things that really get you excited that spring is near are the sighting of certain animals. The first are the Sandhill Cranes, two were spotted by Luann. This past Sunday morning we were greeted by the sighting of Robins, and quite a few too. Some do not fly south, but we haven’t seen any all winter. So the sighting of them is a sign that yes spring is near. In a week or two the Red Wing Black birds and the Swallows should be next.

Along with the Robins we were greeted with a visit of many wild Turkeys. Yes many, so many we lost count, over 25.












Wild Turkey is good eating, but with the season not here YET, they were good to just watch, kind of funny birds too. To give you all an idea of just how many, there are different birds in each picture. About 20 pictured. Gobble-gobble, um Carry-on.
