So I'm outback playing ball with Summer, I'm sitting in my chair watching the chicks and absently throughing her the ball. Suddenly I realize she hasn't come back I look and see her staring intently into the back yard. There are about 20 wild turkeys she takes off runs into the centre of them turkeys everywhere scatter, Summer chases them a moment before she comes back to me. Wish I had gotten a video, very funny. By the way I do not condone my dogs chasing wildlife or any animals for that matter but Summer wasn't being aggressive, just having fun.

Just wanted to add that I thought those turkeys would be gone for good but no after about 15 minutes they were back. I'm sure I heard them muttering " Stupid dog isn't gonna make us leave"

The chicks all run over to look at Mr Wolly Caterpillar.

Make sure they aren't after white tussock moth caterpillars, they can be poisonous and can give a bad reaction to people too. Seem to be a lot about his year.

Was supposed to spend yesterday at the IPM in Verner, but instead spent all day driving around looking for a replacement pipe for my well pump, so I could have water again, after my other one cracked and sprayed water all over the place. Disappointing...
I do have 2 pullets laying, now. I found a couple of eggs under the ladder up to the pop door.
