No deer yesterday...BUT...nature never disappoints

This Lone Tom came scratching along and the bright sunlight really made him look good.
Wish I'd had a better quality camera & zoom lens with me but this at least catches the moment.
Look at the size and thickness of that beard...maybe a 3-5 year old, 22-25lb bird.

Nothing like sunlight on a turkey! God may have given them an ugly head, but man, He out did himself on those feathers!

Little Point & Shoot camera doesn't do it justice...magnificent iridescent colors as he moved along in the bright sunlight

At times these birds can be ghosts.
