Our wild turkey friends have become daily visitors to the backyard. Different groups have been strolling through at multiple times throughout the day. We've even had as many as 12 wild turkeys walk through the yard at one time! It is usually the hens (females) who are our daily visitors, however today we were treated to a trio of toms (males) strutting! Just as human males do their best to attract females (GTL anyone?) the male turkeys do the same thing...PSD you might call it. Which stands for Puffing out their feathers, Spreading out their tails, and Dragging their wings. It is officially known as "Strutting", but I do enjoy my acronym for it. Either way, there was some major PSD going on this morning and I was lucky enough to capture a few photos...
