The Turkeys of Spring

We have been feeding birds in the back yard since we moved to our house in the country. A number of years ago wild turkeys were introduced into the area and have been doing very well. At this time of year when wild food supplies are getting scarce they (along with deer, raccoons etc) start to forage under our bird feeders for the cast off. Some enterprising individuals have actually tried to perch on the feeders. As you can see the males are starting their displays to attract the females. So far the females seem more interested in eating.
