SPRING BIRDING CONTINUES


Our neighbor called yesterday to say his wife had discovered a turkey's nest with freshly laid eggs in it.   There were twelve eggs at that time.  When he took me to see the nest, there were 13.  Apparently, there can be several more eggs in a nest than that.  Not wanting to disturb this nest again, we will not go back to see.  The coyotes were howling and raising up a storm just north of our house last night in the general vicinity of this nest.  Hopefully they were not celebrating a lucky find.
