Great pics, Patti---We have wild turkeys, too.

I can't tell you how much I enjoy seeing them. (I've even been know to sprinkle some birdseed around for them) We have one gimpy one who we call Senor Gimpy who comes with two hens regularly. I am surprised he has lasted so long and hasn't been taken out by some predator.

My mother-in-law used to get a wild turkey for Thanksgiving every year. They were raised on a farm and allowed to roam around. There was less white meat, smaller breasts and the turkey had a distinctive flavor that was different than store bought turkeys. They were GREAT!
