Turkey Shoot

[AIRIC]

At least this morning I had some sun to play with. I went looking for Heron’s and came home with some Wild Turkeys that were willing to play.

There was ten in the group

An added bonus to the morning was this Raptor I managed to get two shots of.

Cheers,

Eric

They still live as WILD turkeys in your area???
I don't think I have ever seen nor heard of any wild turkeys, all I know of are turkeys in turkey farms! Wow.
That portrait is really an honour (well, all your photos honour every subject you photograph!) ... but actually and honestly ... only a mother can love that face, hm?

 

[AIRIC]

Yes, I had to go back and get the wide angle lens they were so close.

Eric I almost get the feeling you have one big trailer behind your car just full of wildlife that you can put anywhere and take a shot of

#5 and the last one are my favorite two

Nice ones Airic. Lafoto is right, they are one ugly looking bird, they can almost make vultures look pretty.
