    As some of you know we recently did eat a snapping turtle when my hubby thought I should have a bite of his childhood history. But, we do draw the line here.

    This little guy flew into the side of the barn and was knocked cold. My huntin' hubby picked it up and held it until the little bird finally came around and flew off on its own. It is now out there sippin' the soup with his other friends.

    Besides...it would take way too many to make a decent meal.LOL
