I took this photo yesterday morning. This is a photo of a turkey hen. Three of her chicks were also in the tree, but I was unable to get a picture of them. At one point (after I put away the camera), the mama turkey was silhouetted on that branch with one of the little chicks beside her. It was SO cute - but of course they were gone by the time I got my camera again.

Oh my. Thank goodness my father doesn’t read blogs, he’d be e-mailing asking about hunting rights!
Your picture is the first one I have seen (alive) in the wild. I’ve seen a couple of gobblers before, but never a hen and certainly never any babies! That’s cool!

Wow! What a great picture! I’ve seen wild turkeys before, but never a hen and chicks!

What a great picture. The blogger’s father(comment above ) should come to my back yard to see wild turkeys and deer! However I have not seen either deer or turkey lately.
