Title: The turkeys of Halls Road
Post by: cosmo3667 on March 02, 2013, 10:44:25 PM

A new twist to visiting Halls road is the turkeys that are now regulars looking for a handout I counted 17 today. They are quite colorful and ugly too bad the sun was not shining colors would of been even more pronounced

I attached my remote to the camera put it on the ground sprinkled some seed and then stepped back and shot away

They do have beautiful colours on them!  I've never been that close... cool tip also. Thanks Cosmo and congrats on the shots, they're excellent.
