Turkey Talk

In late February I made a trip to South Dakota to visit my parents.  The neighborhood where they live is right on the edge of town, and their property backs up to a wooded hillside.  Due to their proximity to this forest, my parents see all sorts of wildlife, but their most frequent visitors are the deer and wild turkeys.  On this day, I witnessed a large flock of turkeys hanging out in my parent's backyard, the male toms all fluffed out, trying to impress the ladies.  One of my brothers does a very realistic turkey call, and is always successful in getting the birds to gobble back.  Although I'm nowhere near a decent gobbler, I decided to try my hand at turkey talk.  The two videos below were my results:









I hope these two videos bring a smile to your face and maybe even a chuckle or two.  They sure made me laugh!

More wildflower photos coming in my next post.......

  1. Linda, your turkey videos made me laugh. I went to a nature park here in Montreal years ago and I got into a conversation with a turkey. They are hilarious 😂
