A century of Turkey talk 2000-2100.

yup

That is awesome! The boy we kept is super alert all night too... just patrols and watches... so very glad you took them!

Ugg! There is a blues song with a phrase that perfectly summarizes our weather: "Hot, Hot as a Coffee Pot". Needless to say , it's nasty humid. Yard birds all panting, hanging in the shade, cooling off in their little pond or sitting under the fans. Daisy is a huge fan hog. Plops down right in front and will even rest her beak on the grill. Fans are up full blast pushing quite a bit of air...she just closes her eyes & stuffs her beak in the grill & will just stay that way. Well, what ever works...I guess.

It's awful here too... I did weed whacking by moonlight last night!

here she is we had 2 more hatch out since this one!

Adorable!!

Relaxing in the cool grass is a favored activity here too. I've been known to garden in the dark too!! Sometimes thats the only time I can get out with this heat!

Same here! Plus, I fry like an egg in hot oil in the sun...

Lovely pics!!!

Every time I smell it, lol... I don't need to actually taste it, my olfactory senses are waaaaay to closely linked with my taste buds... it's a curse... :/
