OK, inspired by Larry’s California Turkeys, I had to share a MIchigan Turkey.
And while putting those 3 images up, I pulled out a small selection of other
shots from this year, around the house.
On the Turkeys, we have 2-3 distinct groupings, all of which converge around
the bird feeder when I put out seed in the morning. And at this time of year,
3-4 Toms will come strutting through to try and make an impression on the
females and younger males. The three shots in this image set are all the same
Tom, he is slightly smaller and less aggressive than the others, and so he gets
pushed over to the side where I can get his portrait without the others
cluttering up the frame.

Larry -
Doing your own repairs can be a royal pain in the ass sometimes, but...revel in the fact that you
can still do it. As you get older you'll find that the repairs you make still give you the
satisfaction of completing them, but they take longer to accomplish. But...even more
difficult...is admitting to yourself "I have the skills; I have the tools, but I can't do this
anymore." It took me until about 75 to begin to give up on some household repairs, and now,
nearly 5 years later it's still difficult. When you spend a lifetime working with "the
tools" maybe it never goes away. Marcia has finally convinced me to stay off the roof. 😁
Back to photography...the turkey pix, I think, are better in this series than
the last. 39960 is a pretty classic tom turkey look and 39968 - the tom with
is harem of hens is fun.

Not unless you count taking photos of the busted fanblade in my clothes dryer.
Sometimes I really envy people with no mechanical skills who are forced to buy
reliable appliances rather than being consigned to kludging things back
together long past their “good by”, or their “goodbye” date.
I did waste a few megapixels on local fauna yesterday: turkeys, juncos, a robin
and a couple of cows. If you’re already bored nearly into a coma this may be
slightly less boring:

There are two flocks of turkeys on my ride around the block. This is the small
flock on the near side of the hill.
