No camera when I need it
The funniest thing happened yesterday. We have had four very plump lady wild turkeys at our bird feeding station just outside my studio window. They are a lovely black, brown, copper blend and were busy scratching for seeds through the snow when one of the turkeys decided to inspect the source of the seed and flew to the top of the feeding station which is an antique wagon wheel spiked on a pole in the ground. Just the site of this top heavy bird trying to balance herself on the wheel, teetering back and forth, far to heavy for the object upon which she sat, I wish that I'd had a camera. There is never time to catch a moment sometimes other than in our own minds and memories. Needless to say, she soon toppled off and flew to the ground; her feathers rearranged, she waddled off into the pine boughs by the pool and regained her dignity.Rosey, in a very cold and snowy S.

The turkeys seem to be moving around here, too, altho it was warm here for a long time - maybe they thought it was spring? A couple weeks ago a flock flew over the interstate cars and landed in a nearby field. There are also some not too far from my house. Lavinia-TN
