Still quite exciting, I found a bunch of baby turkeys with location advice from Rattlin Antler
I was pretty lucky, because this lil one was too curious to duck into the brush for cover. I'm sure his mom was none too happy either...
On a sunrise shoot the next day, I found them again, and just like my last post, they were on the wrong side photographically, but backlighting can be interesting.

Wow, that's quite a brood! Nice pics. Thank you for your comment on my blog re: the Kingbird. It's actually a Western Kingbird. We don't get the Tropical Kingbirds over here. But isn't he pretty? The photo of the grasshopper in mid-air was purely accidental. It was all happening pretty fast, and I was just snapping away!
I love that first photograph.
For some reason I have no trouble photographing turkeys at any time of year except when the young are that size. I have no good still shots of one at that stage, so I have to keep trying.
Maybe you posting this one will make my luck change.
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog.
What a cutie and I LOVE that backlit photo...it puts you right there in the field with them! What a group!
Bravo Hannibal! Great captures. I was so excited today on my lunch walk. got shots of a grasshopper, spider, little blue heron, great blue heron, two black ducks (my first) and a hawk. They all turned out like crap! I may post the Black Ducks anyway since they are my first.
