I see alot of animals and wildlife on my route in the morning. I have stopped and fed horses apples that I brought from home. I am not sure if the farmers mind, but I do it anyways!

One morning I even saw a baby cow just born! The calf laid on the ground surrounded by all the female cows! The mother was upset and was licking her baby, but trying to shoo the nosey girls away! I stood and watched for almost an hour, the little thing struggling to get up on all fours! He finally did and then I went on my way!

Today I was surprised to see a flock of wild turkeys!!! I think there was about 8-10 hens that must of been spooked and they landed right in the front yard of one of my customers! It is a small village of about 5000 people, but I had never seen turkeys before!! My windown was open and I pulled up about 3 or 4 feet away from them slowly. I gave alittle gobble gobble and they all started!!!!! LOL!!! :)
I had my camera in the car but of course my batteries were too low, it wouldn't boot up to take a pic.

I did get a shot of these deer yesterday though......I know you can't tell, but there was a baby with these females!!! A sweet little spotted fawn! I spoke to them too!!! They all turned and looked at me, I took the picture and then they gracefully ran away, their white tails wagging in the wind!
