Not A Feather Out Of Place

 

This tom was strutting his stuff back and forth along my newly mown path.  I'm sure there was a hen nearby - maybe watching in the tall grass.  Tom seemed happy to have a 'carpeted' place where his object of affection could properly see him dance in all of his magnificence. Turkeys eat ticks.   Ticks aren't a major food source for them but if a turkey finds one it will be ingested.  I'm building quite the collection of frozen ticks.  Wonder if there is a turkey feeder I could fill w/ ticks?

I asked Google the geographical area where Black Racer snakes live (I don't think they got all of the worms in RFK Jr's brain).  Google AI came back stating they can't be found in my town.   I've never told AI where I live nor said they could use my location.  Later I googled an old friend's name.   Google AI suggested I had misspelled the name since there were no celebrities w/ that exact name.  It then gave me a list of famous people w/ similar names.  Curious I looked up my own name which I share w/ a once famous TV character.  Up came my blog on the first page (usually it's at least 7 pages in since my blog isn't exactly popular and the TV character was.)    I'm concerned Google AI is making assumptions about me and I wonder with whom it is sharing that info.

Tick count 6.
