The Golf course Parade

 

Are you imagining a home on the golf course?

With Canada Geese parading by?

Even a poor goose with a broken wing?

I've seen Canada Geese on the golf course before but this was the first time I've seen them followed by a flock of Florida Eastern Wild Turkeys.

Pretty fancy golf course with it's own zoo!

A good day to play golf?

Maybe not!!!

I've shown Golf Cart parades before at Christmas time.

And a Golf Cart parade on the 4th of July.

But never a Golf Course parade.

Discovering the real Florida....it's WILD!

Any parades at your house this week?

A Wild Backyard!

These turkeys better enjoy the Fall while it lasts!

 I've heard there may be a shortage of turkeys for the holidays so their days may be numbered! hahaha! (just kidding!!!)

We have a flock of turkeys that live in our community but it's not often that we see them in our 'neck of the woods'!

We grabbed our cameras and stood in our courtyard snapping pics.

The pathway is the cart path for golf carts to use on the golf course behind our house.

And then, we had a little pop up shower come and cool everyone off.

Shake it off! 

And just like that, it passed and the sun came back out. That's typical for us here in Florida.

On one of our hikes this week, I watched some neat bird behavior. 

This Red-bellied Woodpecker had an acorn in it's mouth.

I watched as it stored it in a knot in this tree.

Saving it for a rainy day maybe!

Any wildlife at your house this week?

It's Uphill all the Way!

We live in Florida on a golf course and we love it! 

And so does a variety of wildlife. This week a lone wild Turkey walked through the backyard.

He didn't bother getting on the cart path! 

He took the short cut! heehee!

I've been able to hike 3 times this week by getting out a little earlier and putting up with the heat. There's been a nice breeze so that makes all the difference. But we've had quite a lot to see right here at home. We have babies at the feeders again.

 Bluebird babies and Cardinal babies. I would love to get a video of the Cardinals. Those babies flutter for all they are worth! I don't even have photos of them yet and you know how quickly they grow up!

This was the sign at the entrance to our neighborhood all decorated for the 4th of July.

And here are a couple of photos of our 'new house'! 

Well, it's a new roof and it feels like a new house now. (and yes...it is indeed lavender gray!)

One evening I walked to the pond and saw a big bird in the Cypress trees.

It turned out to be a Great Blue Heron.

And doesn't this Moorhen look like he's looking at all the clover in bloom and smiling? (you really have to use your imagination to see the smile....but come on.....you can do it!) 😀
