Turkeys in the Pasture (not eaten yet!)

Well, there has been a bobcat lurking in the bushes above the pasture eyeing our holiday birds, but so far the birds are fine.  Jake, one of our teachers in residence, has dutifully rotated their electric fence pen every few weeks so they get the most out of the grasses and bugs in the pasture and the soil gets the most out of the turkey droppings.  Symbiotic.  They are put back in their little quansit hut at night.  Now the teachers are on break, so we will have to be extra vigillant to keep the predators at bay.
