On our way to spend time at the cabin, we had to stop in the middle of the road. There was a warning of livestock in the road. WhooHoo was there ever!!!! LOTS of sheep, some sheepherders, and their dogs. It took a long time for them all to pass. They took up the whole width of the road. No traffic going either direction. We would have liked to go see them up clolser but M & D wouldn't let us out of the truck. It was hard just watching.
Then we barked right in D's ear. Did that ever make him jump. heehee!!!! They just went on & on & on. They turned up the road on their way to another pasture. Those sheepherders and dogs were really busy keeping track of all of them. When they finally got going up the road and the traffic could move again, one of the dogs ran at our truck. Don't think he wanted us close to his sheep or . . . . . . . . ?
One afternoon a whole flock of Wild Turkeys (not the drink kind) was wandering along side our property. One came through the fence. Was he ever lucky we (Sasha & I ) weren't outside. But on second thought maybe it was a good thing we weren't out there. There were a lot of them.
They didn't seem to care but Mom was standing right by the fence. They came up really close. Mom moved. She said she had taken enough pictures by then.
They were very busy eating & didn't seem to notice anything. But I'll bet they knew they were being watched.
In this video clip one of them finally notices and flaps his wings. They didn't seem afraid at all.
It was cool. Hope they enjoyed their feast.
We have more pictures for another post. Mom is still sorting them.
Thanks for visiting.
Ernie & Sasha
