My wife and I were pleasantly surprised to see seven young Wild Turkeys in our backyard recently. The adults cautiously led them under our bird feeders where I snapped several photos. Unfortunately there was so little light that nearly all of them didn’t come out. These two were the best ones but that’s not saying much! Anyway, they were really cute and were about the size of grouse. I hope the adults keep them safe.
