The first one would be my new screen saver but I am afraid my computer might freeze up! I got a chill just looking at them.

Thanks everyone. I took these from my porch. The turkeys are always around in the winter when food is scarce. My neighbor who lives across the road feeds them.

Also, right now, I'm taking a leave of absence from my job, so have more time for photo's.

Great pics, almost what one expect for a picture on a jig-saw puzzle. Liking the contrast of between the turkeys and snow.

The turkey was one of the few indigenous animals ever domesticated by the native Americans. It is believed the natives did this originally for only the turkey feathers to use as personal adornment. Then later for meat.

Very interesting Grant. I can see how it would be easy to domesticate them. Once you start feeding them when food is scarce, they will come right in close waiting to be fed.
