Turkeys in the Pouring Rain


We came upon these turkeys feeding in the field while it was pouring rain. 



We sat in the truck on the dirt road and counted thirteen.


This younger one looks a little wet.


It seemed there was always a sentinel on guard. At one point, this one appeared to charge us!


One morning this past week, I saw another dozen turkeys feeding in a rural yard on my way to school. That evening, we saw 4 wild hogs feeding by U.S. 27 as we were coming home from the garden. I always feel so blessed when I see wildlife like this.

Wonderful! I see turkeys often here. My blessing was seeing 2 huge coveys of quail last week. Been a long time!
