Stormy weather

This is how spring is:

blossoms are up for one week, then they get blown away in the wind.
Luckily I got the chance to snap a few pictures before they went.

Or is it Thanksgiving time?
I swear, I'm getting my seasons all confused now!


But the boy turkeys do like showing off their feathers to the girl turkeys, so maybe it is spring after all!


I don't remember the last time a "storm" meant rain, but the lawn around this tree and picnic table got all flooded, and some ducks moved in. Fancy ducks, I might add!


Did I also mention that I heard my first ever gunshot a while ago? From my house?
But gunshots aren't scary when you live in the country. Although it does cause all the animals to be afraid of people, which prevents me from being able to get close-ups of turkeys.
Oh well, c'est la vie!
