Cookham Dean penal colony
Yesterday on our hike around Cookham Dean we passed by this free-range turkey penal institute centre. There was a sophisticated electric fence around the three structures, to either keep the foxes out or the turkeys in, I'm not sure which. I didn't get close enough to determine if it was on, and the dog stayed well away—she's experienced the shock of an electric fence before, and it's not an experience she wants to repeat.
As you can see, there are no turkeys incarcerated there now but I was told by another rambler that the baby turkeys would arrive in the summer.
In other news, I've been busy with various projects, none of which include blogging (not here, anyway) but I have posted a couple of recipes over at WFB. Later I'll post a most delicious recipe for Tortilla Soup, which does not include any turkey, free-range or otherwise. So don't wait for Wednesday to check it out!
