1ST Tom Turkey Strutting + Osprey and Fish

Morrisdh Loc: Pisgah Alabama
 
I have tried for two years to get a photo of a wild turkey in the
breeding strut. I was lucky enough Sunday afternoon to find
one in a small glad with two hens. He put on his best show of
feather display at all angles but the hens paid no heed to him.
Poor Tom.
I also had an Osprey miss his catch and come by and give me the eye. I had the pleasure of meeting some folks fishing for Bream and Shell Crackers that was doing better than the Osprey. 1DX 100-400LII with 1.4XIII extender hand held with
Morris Lens Support. mdh

That area has lots of them and deer also and they usually
move away real quick. Thanks Dennis

I think so, he finally just turned and walked back into the woods. But he put on an impressive show first. Thanks for
looking. Dennis
