About Benjamin Franklin wanted to make the wild turkey, not the Bald Eagle, the national bird of the United States!

The turkey's popularity comes from the American people's love of eating the bird for special occasions like Thanksgiving and Christmas.


Tom Turkey's Tale of a Tail
Peacocks aren't the only birds who use their fancy tails to attract a mate. Each spring male turkeys try to befriend as many females as possible. Male turkeys, also called "Tom Turkeys" or "Gobblers" puff up their bodies and spread their tail feathers (just like a peacock).

They grunt, make a "gobble gobble sound" and strut about shaking their feathers. This fancy turkey trot helps the male attract females (also called "hens") for mating.



I guess they knew I was a female. hahaha Taken at The Heckscher Farm

Pretty birds Alison. It is my hope that this spring I get a few good shots of some wild ones in their own habitat. I'll keep my fingers crossed:)

(Photo's:) that is, although I do like to hunt them in the springtime)

They look so proud and beautiful, it's kinda sad that they'll soon be a dinner.

Hah! This is a really fun shot, Alison! I had the same thought as Amy - they look like a chorus line working out their routine! :) I had no idea there were black and white ones either!

Alison, these toms lined up so perfectly for you! Like dancers... or models! The little bits of snow just emphasize their whiteness. I agree I've not seen b/w turkeys before, love the blue heads! Amy

Beautiful birds. These are an unusual color, (at least for me). The composition, light and colors are very good.
