Turk “ish” Bath Day

I know you all on Facebook have already seen the turkey photos, but this post is for my sister who is not on Facebook. I promised her I would put them on the blog. So here they are: the Baker's Dozen hanging out by the pool. I am thankful I didn't have the pool open on this day or they might have just taken a dip it was that hot!

Silly turks! I could not believe my eyes when I saw them all lined up on the railing. 

And while we're here, why not land on the cabana?

They hardly ever come in to the back yard. I like it when they do because they eat all the bugs.

I'm sorry I'm not here more often. I guess my motivation for the blog has diminished. It started to celebrate our new life in New Jersey and all the adventures, flora and fauna that were new and different to us. Now it's just everyday ho-hum. Add to that the fact that we can't wait to move back to Colorado and start the next chapter of our lives together and well, it's hard to keep the blog going. I think you know where I am coming from. But, until the house sells (and it seems we are not having much luck with that) we are trying to enjoy the rest of our time here. We're taking advantage of the pool and swimming lengths most mornings.

I haven't given up the blog, just scaling back a bit.

Goodness!  What a crew!  Too bad you didn’t have the pool open so they could go swimming. And then they could roost in the cabana! But then there would be a poopy problem, right?

I love how the “nursemaids” are herding the little ones.  Time to go little chicks (of whatever you call young turkeys!) 

Thanks for posting this!

Sis, aren’t they cute? I call them “turklettes” but they are really poults. Yes, a real poop problem. The railing was bad enough when they left. smile
