There have been a ridiculous number of wild turkeys around here lately, the toms all strutting their stuff for the hens, the hens completely ignoring them.

Also known as the snake bird or water turkey, the anhinga is a year-round resident of Florida. It is also found from coastal sections of South Carolina westward to Texas and Mexico, and even south to Argentina.
Like cormorants, anhingas do not have oil glands for waterproofing their feathers and the feathers get wet when they are swimming.
You can often spot the anhinga perched on a branch with wings outstretched, drying feathers. They feed on small fish, shrimp, amphibians, crayfish and young alligators and snakes. The fact that their feathers are less water resistant than other birds helps them to swim underwater, where they often spear fish with their long neck and sharp beak. They surface in order to flip their catch into their mouth for consumption.
Mating generally occurs in February with egg-laying occurring throughout the spring and early summer. Nests are built in shoreline trees 15 to 20 feet high.
I found this one along Peavine Road in Osceola County, Florida.
From Wikipedia:
''Istanbul Sapphire, or Sapphire, is a skyscraper, and as of 2011, the tallest building in Istanbul and Turkey, located in the central business district of Levent. Istanbul Sapphire was the 4th tallest building in Europe when construction was completed. It is now the 7th tallest building in Europe. It is the country's first ecological skyscraper. Sapphire rises 54 floors above ground level, and boasts an above-ground roof height of 238 meters: the building has an overall structural height of 261 meters including its spire, which is part of the design and not a radio antenna.''

Butterflies primarily eat flower nectar, but they also consume:
tree sap and fruit juice.
Liquids from mud puddles, animal dung, and carrion for additional nutrients.
They use their proboscis to drink these liquids, which limits them to a liquid diet.
Some butterflies may prefer specific nectar-producing plants.
These food sources provide the energy and nutrition butterflies need for their life cycle.

Kusadasi városka nevét arról a parányi szigetrÅ‘l kapta, amely a parttól alig 100 méternyire emelkedik ki a vÃzbÅ‘l, és csupán egy töltésen vezetÅ‘ út köti össze a szárazfölddel. Ez a Madár-sziget, törökül Kusadasi. Igen jó állapotban levÅ‘ kÅ‘fal fogja közre a sziget területét, középen pedig egy négyszögletes torony áll, a szigeti erÅ‘d.
1834-ben épÃtették az oszmán-törökök elÅ‘retolt védÅ‘bástyának a szigetek felÅ‘l várható lázadók feltartóztatására. Belül több lakóépületet is emeltek.
