We had quite an exciting time on our walk today. We set off as usual but when we got to the end of the field, my three little westies seemed very interested in a particular spot at the foot of a tree. I thought I should check it out as well and, lo and behold, there was a huge porcupine. I certainly did not want a repeat of last year's adventure. So I quickly pulled them back. Surprisingly, they did not protest; perhaps they remembered last year's pain and suffering. So off we went. A little bit further on, we came across two adult wild turkeys and two babies. The turkeys are not mean or dangerous, they take off immediately. The westies tried to give chase but they were not match. We continued on our walk and we came around a bend, and there standing in the middle of the path was a coyote. That was pretty scary but the coyote took off in one direction, Ralph and Gerry stayed by my side and Pearl took off in the other direction. She was very agitated but didn't go far and I was able to get everyone leashed up and back home safe and sound. No trip to the vet today. That was really too much wildlife for one day.
