Ghostly image of frozen turkey carcass
Started out the week with a bonfire. It looked like this.
Then I'm just toodling through the yard one morning and glance down to see this --
Which is . . . uh . . .
At first I thought it vaguely resembled the outline of a Thanksgiving turkey. Kind of stretched out, but you see it, right? A turkey outline?
Right?
After much paranormal investigation I narrowed it down to a ghostly bird carcass emblazoned on my frosty yard . . . or the spot where my dog was laying--or is it lying? down. And her body heat melted the frost.
Either one.
Not sure.
Jury's out.
Could go either way.
