Hiya! It’s me again with a field report. We went for a ride on Tuesday afternoon just before nap time. Gotta keep these old farts on a schedule. Ride, nap and supper.
The snow is icy and hard in the places where there is snow, we have ice too…there is two inches of snow at the snow stick. It rained last night (Wednesday) and our walk was all icy.
One of the area fields…I think this one had beans in it last summer…or potatoes. It was beans…Far Side found a photo taken in almost the same spot last August. She must be a creature of habit too.
This is the neighbors corn field. Those dots are Wild Turkeys.
In the old grain field across the road from us were 44 Wild Turkeys. I hear them gobble gobbling through our woods…they make quite a racket…and I bark at them.
I might have rolled down my window and barked at them…then again Far Guy slowed down so Far Side could get a photo…all I know is something spooked them and made them fly back into our woods. Might have been me…who really knows for sure?
Chance, I am happy you keep Far Side and Far Guy in line. You never know what they might do if their routine is changed. Thanks for being such a help to them. Glad you enjoyed the ride.
ReplyDeleteSo fun to see your post in Chance's words. Such a cute dog. I can hear the ice crunching under your feet.
ReplyDeleteWow what a lovely flock of turkeys!!!
ReplyDeleteGood thing you barked Chance, it allowed Far Side to get a really nice photo!
ReplyDeleteNice shot of the birds in flight!
ReplyDeleteHey, you've got to keep those turkeys on the alert for predators!
ReplyDeleteI betcha you remember how good that Turkey tasted from last Thanksgiving!! These ones are really fresh!
ReplyDeleteLOl - you're too funny, Chance. I love that last shot - so well done you, if it was you who barked...
ReplyDeleteMorning Chance, oh but you are a naughty boy sometimes. Guess you thought those Turkey's deserved to get barked at. Hugs Francine.
ReplyDeleteLove the picture of the turkey flying, I don't think I've ever seen that before.
ReplyDeleteCute post .. old farts geesh lol Lovely photos , not much snow there either all though it is snowing here right now . Thanks for sharing , have a good day Chance and get a nap in I know Miggs is lol !
ReplyDeleteNice shot of the flying turkey fleet! Good you are there, Chance, to keep things moving.
ReplyDeleteSurely not ;-).
ReplyDeleteField Report - oh Chance you did great on your blog story.... I was out and about during lunch today and got a field picture too.... mostly dirt no snow.
ReplyDeleteButton gets us up in the morning, too early. Barney wants us to leave the breakfast table before we are through eating, he gets a set of milk bones and then Barney whines through dinner if he thinks he can freeload something. Barney always barks and complains as he doesn't want his mom to go up the stairs at night, its a abandonment thing. He has given up night walks as it has become too scary for him. All in all he had less requests than the little poodle. I am glad you got the field checked out. I just wish it was closer to spring.
ReplyDeleteWay to go Chance! I always love gathering the news!

It's great that you're getting out to see some things like turkeys. You really need some more snow.
ReplyDeleteIt's really nice that Chance lets you come along on these field trips, Connie. Seems like you all have fun times. Thanks for your recent visit to our blog and comment on all the snow we received in NH this week. We stayed indoors and watched it all day and no worries about shoveling walks or cars. We are really enjoying apt life!
ReplyDeleteFar Side got a great picture of the turkeys in flight, Chance. I always enjoy it when you are blogging. It's good you keep those humans in line. :-)
ReplyDeleteIf it was you, you helped get a great turkey flight shot!
ReplyDeleteGlad you are back into you familiar routine. :)
