Turkey Horn and BNF
Well, all the other cameras may have decided to go pining for the fjords, but the old NovaBird still hangs in there...
Now about that "horn" or spur on the front of the turkey's face... That is... That is... OK, I'll be honest, I have no clue as to what that thing is. Let me look it up. Hang on... That is (he says with his most authoritative sounding voice) the snood of an un-excited turkey. If the bird had been in a fuss, that protrusion would have been engorged with blood, deep red, and drooping over the side of the beak. (Thanks big time to Dog Breed Info Center.)
Onward...
And what have we here? Why nothing short of a Backyard Night Fishing (BNF) double...
On the left, a cat, and on the right, a possum. I kid you not... Obviously, I run the cam on the right for eBirdseed. But on the left is a camera I've brought on-line for a wine business. It just so happened that both streams caught these animals at the same time... And there you are. I know that this seems like a silly habit, but it isn't. Late the other night, I happened to glance up for just for a moment, and watched an owl swoop by the eBirdseed lens - absolutely beautiful.
And speaking of beautiful, take a look at the sky during sunrise...
See you by the feeders,
