Jive Frozen Turkey

My mum sent me a few pics she took from the house last week after some of the storms. Posting these because there are a few on my friends list who've never experienced the joy of a Michigan winter.

A wild turkey hen came to inspect the beedfeeders around the outside of the house since they were within reach of her. She's about 6 inches from the living room window.

To give you an idea of the size of the snowdrifts. The beedfeeder that turkey hen is standing next to is about 6' tall.





Sunset from the livingroom window.



More pics of the scenery from the sideyard.

Ah, it's beautiful!

Well, aside from the wild turkey. They're bad tempered.

Wait... let me get this straight: You left Buffalo for...

A PLACE WITH *MORE* SNOW THEN WE HAVE SEEN ALL YEAR????

I have to admit though, the sideyard shot is quite scenic. I'm with everyone else on the turkey assesment. Damn birds. Tasty... but ugly and nasty. I'm not a fan of any birds.

'cept penguins. Penguins are cute. :)

I hate birds. *shudder* I'm only okay with them if they're smaller than your average robin AND I don't have to touch them. I'm scarred by having worked with exotic birds at a pet store and a vet's office.

There is a teeny tiny part of me that misses snow like that...
