I used to have a little diary, but I only wrote on it when I was gloomy. Now I will record every encounter of mine here.

Freddie and her babies
Freddie is a wild turkey who loved to perch in our porch in the last two summers. This year, she came back with two babies. I picked up my camera and adjusted the focus by the distance before I approached the window. I shot out of the window through the bug net. I didn't have time to meter and the exposure was way off.
They were so vigilant as soon as I made one more step toward the screen door, they walked away.
Two days later Freddie only came with one baby. I am afraid the other was eaten by the foxes..
