Turkey

Over the weekend, Adam's dad brought over two of the turkeys he has been raising over the summer: Trigger (male) and Nutsy (female).  If you're a fan of the Disney version of Robin Hood, those were the vultures that were with the Sheriff of Nottingham.  Turkeys + Vultures = turkey vultures. 

Yeah, it doesn't take a lot to entertain us around here.

But right now we're in a bit of a turf war.  The turkeys were temporarily put into the yak side of the barn to get comfortable.  This did not thrill the yaks, as they couldn't get into their barn and they've gotten somewhat spoiled.  Two days later, the turkeys escaped out into the open, but not before deciding that the barn was *their* home.  The yaks feel differently, and are not about to let some gobbley interlopers near their haven.  So we've have a lot of the turkeys trying to get in the yaks chasing them out and the barn cat is enjoying the show.
