Wild Turkey's Mating

Gallery: AvianPosted November 17, 2009335 views5 comments

I was in my photo blind last spring and I could hear the turkey calling to each other. When I was just about to leave my blind these two love birds came walking out of the woods right in front of me. What luck!

Shameless!

Unless they are on a hill, your horizon is badly tilted to the left. Tom just might go "tea over crumpets" over his inamorata!

Fabulous feather detail! I like seeing a "mating" post! It's just part of the reality of nature.
Well done, May!
