Bob made a new friend - a quail. He was sitting in the breezeway reading when he heard two quail walk by. One of them stopped and entered the breezeway, walking right up to Bob (about 1-1/2" away), and they looked at each other until Bob made a quick movement to try and get my attention. In all, we've counted 15 quail in the covey that hangs out on the property. No picture of the breezeway incident, but here is a friendly quail chillin' in the vineyard about 10-ft from our front entrance.
These nine wild turkeys come and visit most days, often leaving surprise faeces on our patio. We avoid feeding them so they won't come any more frequently than they already do.
Bob asked me, "have you ever seen a praying mantis?" I told him no, so he made sure I got a good look at this one that was camped out on the wall adjacent to our front door. Freaky!
