Wild Turkey Time

This August day Rob and I headed down Halloway Bay Road. We had just been to the Port Colborne Canal Day. Just a short side trip to the entrance of Marcy Woods. As we approached the end of the road five wild turkeys crossed the road in front of us. We watched them disappear into the undergrowth. Fort Erie has lots of wild turkeys. The picture below is a group of about fifty we saw a few years ago. They were feeding on a harvested soy bean field. When they saw us they quickly dispersed. They can run and run fast. Gobble
sounds we know but we heard clucks and yes, yelps.
