Yesterday I woke up to quite a ruckus in the backyard. I had 23 turkeys there foraging for breakfast. Three were adults. Previously, one Mom was bringing here 8 chicks on a regular basis. Also of note, this is the first year our phoebe has had 2 successful broods. Last year after we removed a cowbird egg, the nest was destroyed soon after.
