Last week my nestbox check found a newly hatched brood, they jump the next day so I int back at 5am and waited.... At 7:15 they started and 11 jumped in less than a minute!. Second time I've seen this, a great experience!
Almost stepped on a fawn sleeping in grass directly under one box, scared the crap out of me but as always it was another example of never knowing what will you'll see when your outdoors!

Great action shots for sure, hope lots survive the summer.
A buddy is raising turkey for meat 12 or 13 and three little ones.
Suddenly they start clucking and making different sounds and then a flurry of feathers when I spun around there a Hawk getting thumped and dropped a chick and flew off.
Yes, one never knows what they will see in nature .
Thanks for sharing once again the seasons hatches.
