Yup, we encountered a flock of turkey's which Winslow promptly put in the tree tops. I don't know who was startled more us or the turkeys.
As we came upon our pond a pretty fox scampered past. Winslow spun into action and was hot on it's trail. This is a very intuitive fox, for you see since beginning our chicken coop he/she has been showing up daily checking out the new "digs" being built in the backyard. Upon returning to the door yard I noticed hawks flying overhead. Now this isn't anything new, but now that I have dainty banty's coming to reside, I'd rather they would fly somewhere else. Winslow is going to be placed on guard duty, maybe even bunking in with the girls. Winslow come back here leave that fox alone. Till next time!

Great post Julie! Beautiful pictures! Didn't you order your flack jackets for you chickens yet???
What's growin in the woods??? Looks like hostas but I know they arent.
What a nice area for a walk. I don't remember when I saw a fox last. They are so pretty. How are you going to fashion your chicken's run? Or are you going to let them free range? I guess the hawks would give me the heebie jeebies on behalf of the chickens too! Good luck!
This is so pretty!
