Wild Urban Turkeys

Those who follow this pathetic Blog know that I get a big kick out of the birds that show up on my Bird Feeder.

Naturally, a lot of the seeds fall to the ground below, and this morning I saw this turkey with her four chicks foraging there.

Pretty cool since we live in a completely urban area on a small 5,000 sf lot that is fenced in on three sides.

The comeback that turkey's have made is really impressive.  They were so rare in my childhood that I never expected to glimpse one in the wild.... let alone my urban back yard.
