~ SNOW! ~ Crabn'eggs ~ Chocolate Covered Nuts? ~

Good 28º snowy morning!

Snow on Maggie's nose!

Breakfast was awesome. I sauteéd some grape tomatoes,

threw in some crab meat, and then when hot added

scrambled egg, salt and pepper. When done I topped

it with grated cheese. Mmmmm mmmm mmm..........

There is this one little robin who hangs around under the

Nyjer feeder. Apparently eating the seed is easier than

catching worms!

You can see she has snow on her. This was yesterday.

It snowed on and off all day, but nothing stuck for long.

So about 1pm there was all this commotion... turkeys everywhere.

The Tom were engaged in "king of the hill" competition. Taking each

other on. There were about 12 of them. They ran into the trees and

then the hens were all here too, watching the Toms, and I counted

roughly 35 of them. OMG what a lot of noise and running and

craziness.  And at the same time the snow was coming down

and blowing!

You can barely see the Toms

And the hens in the blowing snow waiting to see the outcome..

They must have settled their differences and came
out of the trees

of rude things! Idiot. Ah ha, but not too different from his

idiot father! Duh.

All I know. Gotta make a run to town some time today.
