Being Thanksgiving week I thought I would display some wild turkey I saw one day along the road.
There was a large flock probably of one family.
They stayed around a long time and I got quite a few photos of the gang.
You can see a lot of critters above.

Great turkey post! We used to see the wild turkey along Rt 417 in FL all the time going too and from Disney, but I never stopped to try and take a photograph. I didn't want the FHP to get upset with me!

Great pictures Fishing Guy. Here in OK we have lots of wild turkeys and I have sometimes come upon a whole flock (herd, school, ???) of them up close but have never had my camera close by.
Perfect for Thanksgiving weekend. Beautiful birds and photos!
Perfect, FG! Glad that these escaped the roaster. Your new header is great!
Guess they are safe for another year!
Oh this is so exciting to see all those turkeys, wild, free, and alive. Lucky you. Thanks for showing us!
Gorgeous birds. I'm always surprised how big they are.
How FUN to see these wild turkeys! Glad they survived Thanksgiving ;-)
Hugs and blessings,
They must be thankful that they are not in the market or else byebye! (smile) Great pictures.
Great shots, FG!
They don't get close enough for me to get "good" shots of them.
BUT, someday I'll own a zoom lens and they won't have to be close.
Fantastic shots !! I have never seen Turkey so closely !! Great post !!Unseen Rajasthan

There'll be a few less turkeys about after Christmas, no doubt. Great shots :)
Perfect time for wild turkey pics. Now go help yourself to a shot of Wild Turkey----the other kind.
Those are wonderful photos of the turkey's. I've never seen them that close before.
Happy Thanksgiving, Tom. Great shots.
And after that you could eat turkey? They are magnificent birds. Nice shots Tom.
This is great. Some fine plumage there.
Still got some live Turkey then.
I bet lots of them mourn in losing their friends and families last Thanksgiving hehehe (kidding). Great shots!
Magpie is my entry.
An excellent camera critters post, Tom. I like to see the strutting, or "puffed up" as we sometimes call it.
Well, I've got wild turkeys, too! It must be Thanksgiving!
Wonderful turkey shots. It reminds me of my Dad who breed turkeys before..
I am sure you were think of Thanksgiving when you saw them Tom. :)
What a big flock & you really did get some great shots of them! Very cool job
wow..nice..
a turkey chased the he** out of me when i was younger so i am kinda' scared of them. but i do my revenge on the dinner table.
Very nice to see. Don't see wild turkeys around here.
Great post and I love your turkey photos. I hope they survived.
Nice job, FG! Do you know, even in large groups, I've only ever seen females in the wild? Never a male.
Wonderful turkeys! Makes me feel bad for eating one, when I see them wild like this.
Beautiful. They're safe around this vegetarian.
They are so pretty when they strut their stuff : )
Fabulous turkey pictures, Tom! I haven't been around in a while - was traveling and taking care of some family business. Trying to catch up on the impossible task of blog hopping! Happy Holidays!!!
