Big Brave Birds and Courageous Cats


Friday morning and ALL the cats were on High Alert!
Why?
I'm glad you asked.


Perhaps because a group of 10 marched up the driveway... 

...around the front of the house...

then strolled...

to the back yard...

where the gals spied the cats...

and the cats spied the turkeys.

They appeared equally fascinated with one another!

All the turkeys were hens - so no aggressive Tom-turkey behavior.

Though this gal looked to be a bit wary of Padma...

While these two hens showed no fear whatsoever.

I think the Meet and Greet went very well!

Oh Beth, those photos made me laugh out loud. My son thought they were hilarious - they must have been so curious about each other.

How funny! There is an ostrich farm right down the road from us. I still get a kick out of seeing those gawky birds in this area of the south!
