Turkey
Posted By: Jimbo, 03-27-2009, 10:55 AM

Spotted these Turkey's running around someone's yard this week in Laconner WA. Was told they ran wilf through the town. Lighting was not the greatest. These guys love the fight each other and weren't too happy with me either. JIM

I think the blue could be a lighting issue. They have a lot of red in the heads as you can see from the other two. Thank you for commenting. JIM

They are ugly but taste great! I was told they just roam the town looking for hand outs. JIM

Great shots, JIM. I just gobble up stuff like this.

I smiled at number 3 and number 1, which reminds me of a boss I once had.

Thanks Jer. I like #3 too but that damn car in the background. The lighting was difficult too. JIM

Nice shots! What a big and handsome and rather ugly faced bird a turkey is!
