M&M Monday

I have a total of 7 dog beds; 3 in the LR, 2 in the bedroom, & 2 in the office. Aaaaand . . .

Do they lie on them???  Not really. 

Well, sometimes.  Let's just let sleeping dogs lie.

Millie fell asleep and her ear was hanging over her water bowl. Her ear would start drooping & touch the water & she would flick it back up out of the water. I tried to get it on video, but no luck. It was v. funny, tho.

Here's Maggie by my feet. As per usual.  :-)

And here's Millie at one of her favourite spots:

Whatcha lookin' at, Mil?

One of the twins. SO SWEET.

Here's Maggie out on the porch:

As long as Tabby's away from the food/water bowls, Maggie's friendly. 

Tabby, on the other hand, is a bit suspicious of her intentions.

And later, out the window:

Turkeys!  Again. The chicks are getting big.  :-)

It's like Millie's version of TV.

Turkeys AND deer!

Turkeys

Yesterday, Millie was on the back porch and she started barking her "I see some sort of animal out there" bark. I look at her line of sight and she's watching a turkey waaaaaay down in the field.

View off the front porch.

Turkey out standing in its field.

And then it joined a few friends & their chicks:

Hullo.

Wild Turkeys

Yesterday, I looked out my window to see a flock of wild turkeys trotting down my driveway. By the time I got my camera, having learned from my previous experience of trying to photograph them, they were pretty much over the crest. It was a huge flock, really! But then, THEN!

I looked out my other window and I saw this:

But they saw me and headed back into the wood. Turkeys are FAST! Did you know Ben Franklin wanted the national bird to be the turkey? They're smart and fast and so tasty.

Anyway, so all I have is this photo that accentuates the dirt on my windows. Really, they don't look that dirty! I can't wash them on the outside without a BIG ladder. Well, I could. If I were my mother.

Lest some of you, and you know who you are, are quick to label this a "Hair Wash Post," read on . . .

This is the field in front of my house:

Last week I heard a noise outside the window and looked to see that it was full of wild turkeys. I counted a flock of 50. 50!!! I snuck out the back door and took a picture . . .


And this is all I got. Apparently you can't sneak up on a flock of wild turkeys.

If there's a next time, I will endeavor to snap a photo through the window.
