Saturday Sparks Link Party 703

Welcome to Saturday Sparks 703!

Starting off today's party with a sweet surprise!


This flock of turkeys rolled through the other day, after a long winter without them.

They cut through the back field and disappeared into the woods.

I can't blame them for not lingering as the wind was howling and the air was bitterly cold.

Stay warm, my friends.

  3. While we have quite a few wild turkeys in East Texas, I have never notice a line of them walking. That is wonderful. I really like that Winter White Tablescape, very nice! Thanks so much for hosting.

    1. Happy to host, Melynda! For some reason, our wild turkeys play follow the leader quite often. Many smiles ~ Suzanne.

    1. Happy to feature you, Shelley! Per usual, your lovely home shines through in your post. It is crazy that the impending snow and frigid temperatures are covering such a wide area of the country. It's just another winter day for us. Stay warm ~ Suzanne.

  6. Your photo of the turkeys parade reminds me of similar visits to our neighborhood (we live next to a nature preserve). I love the way you captured them on a snowy day! Yesterday the temps dropped to -19 below with windchills near -50 and I couldn't help but think about all our wild life and how they are coping! Thanks so much for the party, Suzanne! Stay warm!
