YARD HAPPNINS

Look what has been going on in our back yard! We have had a group of 10 turkeys stopping by to visit on several occasions.
I have no idea where they are coming from.
This guy seems to be the leader. He always checks things out first before the others come tagging along behind.
I am not sure what they are looking for. Aaron said, "Good thing it's not turkey season or he might have to get his shotgun!"
Also we have had a stray cat that has taken up home in our backyard. We were soon to discover that she was pregnant. Last week she had 5 kittens. Sadly one of the black ones did not survive. But all the rest are doing well.
She did not have them in a very safe place and we kept trying to move them. Of course she just moved them back. Here they are on the porch inside my Christmas manger. She finally found a good spot in the cool dirt next to the garage. It was Aaron's idea to use the manger to give them some shelter. They are much happier in the dirt than in the box we used here. Oh, well. She is such a good mama.Hope you all are having some fun times in your backyards this summer.
