Turkey Video, Seagull, Flying Mudbug Parts, and What's Next

Hi all,

Ah yes... Nothing like a frisky turkey video to start off a post and the new year. (Between three males and seven hens, we may be ankle deep in turkey guano come next Spring.) Fun to watch the "feather draggers" though.

Next on the agenda is a great depiction of what happens to the remains of "The Thumb-Ripping Mudbugs"...

I mean we've got spent shards of carapace flying every which way. What I didn't get (and there wasn't much), the herring gull desecrated. While the crows didn't quite know what to do with their "Cajun Surprise", the gulls did. (I like to think of them as chain saws with wings.)

So that's about it for our latest birding excitement... But what's next for 2010? Ohhh... In the past, the boss has asked that I think outside the box... Really let loose... Okayyy...

  • We'll have BNF pictures to prove that not only does Bigfoot exist, but that he has a wee relative alive and well, right here on Cape Cod. And if that ain't enough, we'll even tell you the true story of our terrifying encounter with the thing!
  • There will be a smokey and wine-filled interview with local legend and former selectman, "Da Gizz" (replete in his bathrobe and straw hat) who will describe his flying squirrel. You're gonna love this one...
  • And who would miss the upcoming bird showtune(s), bird poems, bird carvings... And that's not to mention boat building and
  • bathroom remodeling...
So there you go... "New Year Edgy". Long live Hunter S. Thompson! (I wonder how long before the boss fires my twisted tail section?)

See you by the feeders?
