Grok grok grokity grok

This morning, almost six AM. All kinds of crazy bird noise out in the back of somewhere. I couldn’t figger exactly where. It wasn’t crows. It wasn’t seagulls. It wasn’t song birds (a weeeee bit too early for those but they came out a little later). It was not The Raven (GROK GROK). I was thinking it might be our neighborhood turkeys but nobody was gobbling. Just making noise. I opened up the Merlin Bird app on my phone and held it up to the open window. Wild Turkey. Yes. That’s what I thought it was.

After I got up, I glimpsed somebody walking down the beach out the front picture window. I didn’t catch who it was but it had a weird head shape for a human. A few minutes later, I realized that it was NOT a human, it was a TURKEY and it was walking across our front yard. Not a human on the beach. I wanted to get a picture of it but that was not in the cards. I love having turkeys in the neighborhood even if they sometimes gobble at me at five AM.

So here I am on the beach at the end of my work day. The sun is over the yardarm and it is visibly starting to move south again. At the moment there is the thrum of a lake freighter passing by out in the channel.

We’ll talk about air quality alerts and E. Jean Carroll vs. Donald J. Trump some other time. I don’t have the bandwidth for that tonight and neither do you. If the scummy Epstein list is what takes scummy old Trump down, I will be happy but I doubt that it will. He seems to slip out of all kinds of crapola. Not E. Jean though. Badass woman.

Love y’all, KW.

    I was hoping that the Epstein list would be the deal breaker but his cult is starting to back him again, so I think you’re right about him slithering out from any consequences. As usual. Spectacular shot! Wild turkeys would be interesting. I’m not sure I would recognize one at first. I’m used to them on my plate!
