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.......
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 😂
ReplyDeleteYup! I needed that laugh! Thanks.
ReplyDelete...I often see turkeys, nut never this close up!
ReplyDeleteThat was hilarious!
ReplyDeleteThat did make me laugh.
ReplyDeleteThat is amazing and so much fun. They are definitely more interesting than our bush turkey's that are now taking over suburbia.
