Daplumma Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 (edited) Found this guy walking around in the woods today.I was able to get pretty close but the camera was not on the right setting. I came back later and he was checking himself out in the reflection of Bex car.He even did a little dance for me. Joe Edited October 30, 2009 by Daplumma
irishfield Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 (edited) Last one looks like he's trying to sneak away... kinda like Art dodging paint balls... Edited October 30, 2009 by irishfield
trapshooter Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 Nice Tom. If it was spring he probably would have fought the reflection on the car.
TC1OZ Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 Those woods look very similar to your drive way
siwash Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 Holy smokes, i thought those things were stealthful and skittish

Greencoachdog Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 Isn't that your pet Turkey you had penned up with the chickens the last time I was up there Joe?... what was his name?... TJSA? I remember him coming up and pecking on my boots for cracker crumbs and potato chips!... or am I full of it?... I can't remember which? Cool pics Joe! ... he was eating the chicken scratch, wasn't he?

Bex brought him some scratch grain yesterday and he ate it all up.The parking lot is where she works.If he hangs around I might invite him over for thankgiving.
ChrisK Posted October 31, 2009 Report Posted October 31, 2009 Try walkin up to one wearing camo and a shotgun in your hand
POLLIWOGG Posted October 31, 2009 Report Posted October 31, 2009 I guess I should have took a picture when my sister walked up to one picked it up and pet it on the head. She came back to the house and my brother asks "did you see any turkeys back there" she opens up her coat and had the stupid thing under her arm.
misfish Posted October 31, 2009 Report Posted October 31, 2009 (edited) Joe,theres an old saying,,,,,,,,,,,,Finders,keepers. This pic looks like he is doing a fake sexual move on a hen.Seriously. Edited October 31, 2009 by misfish
Daplumma Posted October 31, 2009 Author Report Posted October 31, 2009 Joe,theres an old saying,,,,,,,,,,,,Finders,keepers. This pic looks like he is doing a fake sexual move on a hen.Seriously. Looks like one of my roosters doin the chicken dance to me.They start doing that when they are barely peeps and do it till they die.I learned more about Turkeys from having chickens than any amount of time in the field.There is a high end retirement community near where this guy was.I suspect some old hunter has been baiting this young one in.Was cool to be that close and not pull the trigger.....yet. Joe
aplumma Posted November 1, 2009 Report Posted November 1, 2009 that's were my decoy went.......give it back when you are done with the pictures. Art
