Our Easter Visitor

I think this lovely fellow was a bit confused when he visited last Sunday.

Or perhaps he thought it was safe to come feast at the bird feeders on Easter rather than Thanksgiving.

The dogs were extremely upset about his visit and he almost moved on before I could bag a picture of him. (Why are the batteries always on the charger when this stuff happens?!)


He's actually quite handsome or maybe she is quite attractive.

Perhaps my brother in law big Lar can clear up the gender for us.

HEY LAR, is this a girl or boy turkey?

I'm not Larry, but I believe that to be a female. Or a very young male. It's definitely one or the other. And great job getting the shot - they are very shy and run at the slightest sound usually. At least out here - maybe yours get more used to people?
