On a clear day...

Blue skies... weeds passing...

not a cloud in the sky...

Hint of ice on the pond...

Deer and Wild Turkeys from Manitoba visit...

On the Island, in town, (it is surrounded by water on only 3 sides, but has always been called Island Park) they have a fenced in area with deer running free..the kids love to visit and feed them..this fellow thought I had something for him..

While at my cousins for Sunday supper, a flock of Wild Turkeys passed through their country property, this is taken through her living room window as I feared scaring them away if I opened the door..neat to see for us, as I haven't seen these fellows up close!!
