Turkey Mating Ritual


Living at the end of the road and surrounded by forest and field, we enjoy the daily viewing of wildlife of one sort or the other, primarily birds, deer, and wild turkey.  We especially enjoy watching the whimsical and beautiful wild turkeys.  We witnessed several Toms performing for potential mates this spring - this particular Tom tried in vain (as far as we could see) for two days, only to have the hens ignore him and keep on walking - he never gave up as he followed behind at a distance as far as we could see.  Hope he was able to fulfill his dream of being a Daddy.
