Cruising the cul de sac.
They are a real beauty that only a mother could love
Her and Ben Franklin.
Turkey This guy was hanging out on my patio for a while a few weeks ago
Nice picture.
FYI that is almost certainly a hen.
Yes it is a hen. It was a generic guy… Sorry ladies
Lol, great picture either way.
What a beautiful country.
This gave me flashbacks of being chased by an angry turkey when I was in elementary school.
Amazing how fast they are.
That’s how I feel about geese.
That ain’t no jive turkey.
Hey, you know what they say, see a hen to get that booty action…
A nice turkey here.
Where are you? I wish we got turkeys in my cul-de-sac!
No you don’t. They block traffic, scratch cars, damage houses, and make an ungodly mess. We have gangs of them roving Eugene, Oregon.
Southern New England suburbs. They really are something to see
Awe man! I sure envy you living where turkeys live. We dove 5.5 hours each way to hunt turkeys this spring. They’re beautiful and majestic birds, with absolutely amazing senses of sight and hearing. They seem clumsy, but they can vanish into the woods without ever appearing to hurry. They can fly 50 mph when they want to (which isn’t often). The only reason we can hunt them successfully at all is because they don’t have a good sense of smell. If turkeys could smell as well as deer, then nobody would ever have a successful hunt. They’re sneaky ninja birds that can hide in plain sight, despite being the size of two basketballs stacked on top of each other, and weighing 30 pounds. Anyways, great shot, of a great bird!
