Feathered Friends - Smap Round #166 - A New Visitor - by Sunscape
Look who came to visit my bird feeder in the middle of the afternoon. I happened to open the door to the porch and saw this young male turkey walking toward the feeder. I quickly grabbed the camera hoping not to startle him.
It is hard to capture him through the temporary fencing I have up for the dog. But I hope you can appreciate seeing him as much as I did. It is a rare sight for me, especially in my own yard.
It was fun watching him scratch at the grass to get to the fallen birdseed.
Then the feasting was over and he trotted off towards the wooded area behind the house.
I got closer to him to try and get a better photo and he kept a very sharp eye on me the whole time. I was surprised he didn't run off but gingerly walked into the brush unalarmed by my presence. I hope to see him back again perhaps with a mate and better yet a flock of young ones too.
Thank you 
Until next time, this is Sunscape
