I took these photos at Litszinger Road Ecology Center (an Urban Nature Reserve) spring 2006.
Two Tom Turkeys (males) facing off.
Two Tom Turkeys trying to impress a Hen Turkey (female).
Can you see her? She's much smaller and to the right of the males.

The poor guys: all fluffed out and no place to go. The hen looks rather disinterested (so far). These sure are classic looking turkeys, though. Happy Thanksgiving.
I wonder if they ended up on someone's dinner table *lol* Happy Thanksgiving!

P.S. Today I am serving a classic Khmer dish at FoodTrips.
Wonderful! I've enver actually ever seen a turkey in anything like its natural habitat. Happy WW
wonderful!
It's the same with any species isn't it?
Furred, feathered, two legged or four- the lengths males will go to impress a female...
Nice shots.
my WW is here
Hope you can stop by!
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
I love how thematic your photos are today. Can you tell how unimpressed the female turkey is with the two "toms"?!! Great shots!

Happy WW and Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving!
Ah, I guess some things are universal :-) Thanks for stopping by!
We sometimes see turkeys around the house -- nice shots! Thanks for stopping by.
These are great shots of the turkeys. I hope you have a very happy thanksgiving.
They sure are beautiful, too bad they taste so darn good.
Happy WW and Happy Thanksgiving!

I think they are conspiring to hide after watching the Sarah P. YouTube interview with the turkey killer working in the background!
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!
