Wild Life Survey - Morning Update

When I got out up there was a large fuzzy spider floating in my bedside glass of water. I am grateful that for once I did not awaken in the middle of the night with a throat-crushing thirst. Wriggle-and-jiggle-and-tickle inside her indeed!

I had a cup of coffee with wild turkey...no, not the whiskey. Three adult hens escorted their very recently hatched flock of baby turkeys through the front yard, teaching them to scratch for acorns and look so cute that Robert throws turkey chow into the yard every morning. What is the term for a baby turkey? Is it a turkelet? Please let it be turkelet...

There is a large window in the shower. This morning I bathed with a small herd of deer grazing in the side yard. A young buck with a broked-off antler stared at me as he chewed up some bushes. In fact, he stared at me so intently that I began to feel uncomfortable and felt compelled to draw the curtain for the sake of my personal modesty.
