So many baby TURKEY!!!! Oh they are so cute. The turkey that live by city hall have a few new additions to the flock. I found this a bit odd. I don’t know a whole lot about turkey, but I would think the babies would hatch in the Spring, not in the Fall. They are adorable and mamma is doing a great job guiding them around the town. She is not part of the generation of Turkey that used the sidewalk, so as drivers we all have to keep a sharp eye out for them. Little guys just popped out of nowhere to cross the street. They live by a retirement village, so everyone drives 35 in that area anyway. Right across from city hall and the church is the Veronda-Falletti Ranch. The word ranch makes it sound like a big piece of land. It’s actually only a few acres. I mention them because there is a constant rotation of farm animal going through the farm. Right now they have baby pigs. BEYOND CUTE. So everyday when I drive the baby bassets to school, I see baby pigs and turkey. The cuteness overload is a delight! It’s the best way to start the day.
