Just couldn't resist posting this running Wild Turkey calling in the campground in Palo Duro Canyon State Park, Texas. "All I said was its Thanksgiving week."
Early morning flock feeding through camp before campers awoke and walked the dogs.

Charles- I really like this shot, as I beleive it is really hard to get a decent image of a turkey. You did quote a good job and I take my hat off to you. Nice capture. Mu he was in a bigf hurry!

Not an easy task to photograph these guys in the wild. The image lacks of details, perhaps because of a heavy crop? I would also apply some sharpening.
