badgers getting frisky on my terrace

@gazza61 that terrace is a real hotbed of activity.

Went fishing today and came across a ewe group of big horn sheep.

Wild turkey starting to bunch up for fall at the farm

[SKT]

Really tried to get a decent pic of this whitetail deer bachelor group but still ended up pretty grainy.

[Mizmazzle]

@SKT Dang. That’s cool. Turkey's can be so elusive around my neck of the woods.

[SKT]

@Mizmazzle as fall wears on they’ll group up in flocks of 20-30. We’re really lucky in Missouri to have a large and healthy Eastern Wild Turkey population.

[Mizmazzle]

@SKT do you ever turkey hunt? Could be cool to have one for Thanksgiving.

[SKT]

@Mizmazzle I do. Fall and spring and usually with a bow.

I never see owls in the wild. I think they’re the coolest.

[goosehd]

This one was less than 20 feet from me. I stood still and watched it as it did to me. I love owls and have a few species here. Posted a while back a snowy owl that took my breath away. I was shaking with excitement and awe as I took pictures of it.

[SKT]

Beautiful pics. It’s always exciting to be that close to truly wild animals. Something primal about it

[DeeDee85]

@goosehd wow!! Amazing

I saw this gorgeous osprey when I was out on a bike ride the other day.
