Happy Feet

There was plenty of activity on the turkey mound in my back yard this morning. A young turkey was digging exploratory holes, while the mature turkey was tap dancing like an animated penguin. I’ve never seen a turkey tap dance before :)

During the night, I could hear the turkeys running on the roof, and in the pre-dawn hour, a Bush Thick-knee, a Channel-billed Cuckoo and an Eastern Yellow Robin calling.

    There’s not too much calling between 10 pm and 4 am Jeff :)

    Occasionally there’s a Boobook in the distance, and the Tawny Frogmouths are fairly quiet. The Brush Tails and flying foxes can get a bit noisy however.
