City Kids - Week 17

Summer is officially here!!
And the farmers welcomed it in with moving heifers,
witnessing a calf be born, making a home for our new baby turkeys,
and keeping our garden watered and free of weeds,
 so those plants can grow, grow, grow.

Turkey's being very curious of the camera
Turkeys only 5 days old!!

New calf Kiwi was born....below is here birth "story"
Kiwi's first exposure to the world
