Living in Colorado, has been like having a wild animal refuge in our yard!  It’s absolutely amazing.  Within the first two weeks, we have had quite a few herds of elk walking through our yard, deer, we’ve seen a couple of foxes, and wildly enough, even had three wild turkey roaming around for a few minutes!  Unbelievable!!!  We keep being warned that there are lots of bears up here, so we are on the lookout! 

There is a huge field we pass on the way to our home, and there are herds of elk out there at least a couple times a week.  It’s really magnificent to see.  I’ll be running errands through town, and there are elk in neighborhoods and random places you would never think to see a wild animal hanging out.

Elk in Elk Meadow almost next to our home…

Too bad my pic’s of the wild turkey didn’t turn out…you’ll just have to imagine it!
