Doesn't that tom just make you drool! In the other picture there are 12 toms - look at the others- they're heads do not have all that color and they are smaller. This must be old one I do know he is the dominant male. He has been hanging out for a few years. Last fall I took picture of him with zoom lens out in field with half dozen hens following him - he was strutting his stuff and the sun hit him just right and the iridescent colors were just an explosion of blues/greens/aqua's/browns and silver shimmer. The coloring and shine is very similar to colorful birds like peacock or pheasant. The other males in that group have grayish brown heads, very nondescript. I have seen this one with beard dragging ground before. There is one with double beard and one touches the ground but unlike in the game they are one on top of the other not a Colonel Sanders bow tie.BuiuRei wrote:Fantastic pictures and yard!
Omg, that tom! EW really must revamp the turkey; please, pretty please!
The twins are like watching a miracle- We have twins at least one pair every year. Sometimes 2 sets and even triplets. This year looks like 1 set and 1 single. i am pretty sure I have at least 3 generations in yard at same time. We seem them every day. They are in back yard right now eating corn we put in horse buckets then they go have a drink from birdbath. This time of year now that mom is bringing them out in the open they develop independence come and go as they like. This is when they are so funny running around jumping and playing together. They are like any babies, get into things, have mom chasing after them and stomping ground and bleating at them to behave, they don't listenHOSSEIN.D wrote:Very nice pictures. And as i told before, you live in peaceful place Len.
I love those twins.
Thanks! and glad it's enjoyed. It's a treat to enjoy it for sure. It's the trade off for my crappy net speed I guess.JimboCrow wrote:Nice pics Radamus. Thank you. Very nice.
It definitely is, Len - beautiful pictures! Looks like you live in a place where I would spent my holidays...Radamus wrote:It's a treat to enjoy it for sure. It's the trade off for my crappy net speed I guess.
