Tom Turkey Strutting His Stuff

Cryppy Loc: Gouldsboro, ME

I shot this through my dining room window last week. Turkeys run rampant around here (Maine coast), and lately the Toms are engaging in one-upmanship every day trying to attract girl friends. Shot with Nikon D7200, Nikon 18-300mm lens at 230mm, 1/125 f/8 and ISO 320.

Great photo and very impressive bird. On the subject of impressive Tom turkeys, did you ever see this one from Audubon?

I thought it HAD to be fake when I first saw it.

Wow - excellent photo! Good that he was near the window - they aren't very likely to pose for you if you get near otherwise. They used to visit my front yard in Joneboro, Maine. Fun to have them - but afterwards watch your step....
