Scroll through quickly and you can come for a walk across to the West barn with Megan and I yesterday morning.
And then back we walk to the house for breakfast.
And what do we find going on arriving back at the house!?
Turkeys (and one little peacock of course) ON the verandah. In full riot.
I hope you have a lovely day.
Love your Fellowship Friend

It looks as if you had a lucky escape from Multiple Big Bird Poo all over the verandah… Cheeky buggers, that’ll teach you to take your eyes off them for one single minute. D’you reckon Geraldine was the instigator, or did she just come along for the ride when the others decided to be Bad Turkeys?
Turkeys are the naughtiest creatures we have ….. a lovely walk, thank you
Thank you for taking us to that nice walk to the Westbarn… and back. Nice to see the actual landscape.
We say: When the cat is out the mice start dancing on the table…. I think the turkeys were just missing you.
Thank you for the promenade. The bad turkeys and peafowl chick made me laugh. The idea of a riot of feathered folk is alarming.
love,

Great walk, naughty Turkeys 🙂 Laura
How long does it take you to walk to the west barn and back? What is the distance between? What a lovely old barn.
I’d like to know, too. 🙂
I walk fast so it takes about 9 minutes one way – about 1/2 a mile I think.. c
I think we need a map Miss C! I haven’t quite got it sorted in my head where all your buildings go. I guess you don’t have many spare minutes to draw anything – maybe one of your visitors could show us 🙂
YES – this is a great idea – i did one once a long time ago – I shall redraw it for you!! c
What a wonderful congregation of birds!!! Miss Peacock was holding a class I’m sure.
that was their way of ‘welcome home’
Perhaps the flock was intending to prepare breakfast for you and just couldn’t quite come to terms with how to get themselves through the door and into the kitchen…
Oh, to have a barn like that! Or even one half the size, would be wonderful! Does everyone leave their shoes outside? I’m just thinking, especially after seeing the birds frolicking on the porch, that if they didn’t there would be lots of animal poo coming into the house!
In New Zealand one always leaves ones shoes outside. it is a cultural thing, so it is a rule here too and believe me the turkey poo is not the worst.. c
Interesting you say that it’s a NZ thing… I am from NZ, and our family never bothered, we all wear our shoes inside. About half our friends take them off and the other half don’t, it makes it terribly confusing wen visiting someone to know what the proper thing to do is! Mostly I forget (because we don’t do it), then realise that everyone else has taken their shoes off at the door. Rather awkward, especially when I remember my socks have holes in them…
No-one will mind about your socks – but if you enter a Maori household we always remove our shoes .. however maybe it is not so important now as it was when i was a child ..
What a lovely walk. I enjoyed seeing this perspective. And that morning light made for some gorgeous photos.
Lovely walk – ike others I’m intrigued to know how far it is and how long it takes?
I can walk over there feed the calves and walk back all within 30 minutes but i walk very fast. c
…a woman on a mission!
Thanks for the morning smile. How many acres are there on the farmy. We had 160 and right now I’d almost like that again. Just too old to take care of it all.
My portion of the farms is 7 acres here and 5 across the way at the West Barn.
That’s slightly more manageable. Still a lot to take care of. Along with all the animals. We just had crops.
Fun way to start the day. I think they were waiting for breakfast, not waiting to make you breakfast. Had to be someone’s bright idea. 😇
I love the path, no wonder you enjoy the walks so much it’s beautiful. The turkeys are sweet they have kind of a buzzard head. Is the brown one a female or is it the other way around?
Robin
i think it is a female.. the turkey tom is the big one with the droopy wings
So cute! Thanks 🙂
