Is it Turkey time?

Today I was on my way into Duncan, just around the corner from where we live near the bridge and looked out into the field to see this:

We seem to have a herd of about 50 wild turkeys living nearby.

I guess they live in the woods nearby but were out foraging for food. I've seen them twice now and they seem to be at home! I hope they don't find the garden in the summer like the beavers did!

  1. That's pretty cool! But mother dear...I believe a group of turkeys is called a rafter. At least according to michigan.gov. I was about to call it a flock, then decided to check my facts! :) Great pictures!

  2. I guess with Thanksgiving and the holidays over with they felt safe enough to come out?? How fun!
