Kate and Justine went for a hike up the hill, looking for wild turkey feathers. They'd found some last week, and were hoping for a few more. They found not only a clutch of feathers -- small ones, fluffy ones to add to their collection. Even more exciting, they also found a roost tree, where the turkeys have been sleeping at night!
Today Henry and Corrie walked back up the same trail, and there it was: the classic wild turkey tail feather. What a prize!
You could write great novels with a quill like that! Lots of people are now reporting sightings of the turkeys, and their young poults. We haven't seen them in on the lawn yet this year, but now that Labour Day is almost upon us, and it is going to be a bit quieter, we wouldn't be at all surprised if they come to call!
