Some mornings I just luck out. Had just opened my first tax return to start my workday and I glanced out the window and there she was under the bird feeder. Grabbed the camera and as soon as I opened the door, Baron starts barking. She heads back toward the wild area but stops and poses for me. I hope you like the captures. No PP except cropping in Iphoto. Please try the downloads.

Thanks Gregory, I couldn't believe it, she just walked out of the swamp and visited my bird feeders which I have right outside my office window. My bride and I were still drinking morning coffee & tea and I had just opened a return to work on it when she showed up. I will now be on the lookout for a Tom, they should be gobbling in the next week or two. Thanks again for taking the time to look and the great comment. Much appreciated as always.

Don't forget to look up, also, they roost in the trees. Great to have wild turkeys in your yard, you are lucky

Thanks again and I'll have to post the pictures I took a couple years ago when they were on my neighbors roof. Lots of good fun here with the varied wildlife. Probably will have gators in downtown Deland soon as they look for love in all the wrong places.
