This one is too good not to share...Since living in Ham Lake we have had our encounters with wildlife but with less than two weeks prior to Thanksgiving, this is one for the books.
Moments ago I was pulled away from my work on the computer due to a weird thumping noise. I was confused but thought maybe the cat was playing with something in the kids rooms...nothing upstairs. The noise was coming from the basement...maybe the cat had something downstairs...that can't be good as in the country, we get mice from time to time.
Nope! It was this guy and he scared me out of my wits! He was tapping at the glass of our basement window. I had to get a photo to prove it to everyone.
This is my third encounter with wild turkeys in Ham Lake. The first one didn't go so well and we are still cleaning miniscule shards of glass off the dashboard of the minivan. The second one was last year when one bird got trapped in the batting cage netting out back. But this one trying to get a free invite to Thanksgiving? Good thing I am not a hunter! :)
