Look who came for Breakfast!

We have Turkeys in Custer County! This is the first year we've seen them. They appear to be quite fond of the cracked corn, whole corn, bird seed & all the other scraps, etc., that we put out there.

What started out as some sprinkles, turned into big, fat, wet snowflakes, then suddenly, *Hail*! LOL
Only about pea size here.

Where-ever Katie is, Kassie is on her lap snoozing, or right on her heels, following her. Yes, Kassie has a little pink hooded jacket on.
