PESO: Wild Turkeys
Was recently visiting my brother in the heavily settled San Jose, CA area. He is hopelessly involved in electric powered RC airplanes. I went along with him to enjoy his hobby together with a number of like minded graying headed persons. I found it good BIF practice. When he had had his fix, we took a short drive around the area and came across a band of wild turkeys. Had to shoot it, of course, and find the homogeneous cover pleasing..for some reason. Comments?

Re: PESO: Wild Turkeys
Thanks, Bob! I understand it to be part of a County park system. It's very well used with hiking trails, rest rooms and convenient well maintained roadways and parking areas. Thus, the wildlife is more acquainted with meandering people than more remote areas. I've been there a number of times and have never heard anyone complain about unruly visitors. Brother reports seeing a large variety of wild animals and birds. He now has my K10D and am looking forward to seeing what he captures. ;) Jack --- On Mon, 5/2/11, Bob Sullivan rf.sulli...@gmail.com wrote: From: Bob Sullivan rf.sulli...@gmail.com Subject: Re: PESO: Wild Turkeys To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List pdml@pdml.net Date: Monday, May 2, 2011, 7:20 AM Jack, Nice image and very pleasing composition.
