Backyard Turkeys

Unreal!!! I would've thought these wild turkeys would've spooked and never allowed me to take pictures, let alone a video. They hung around all day and in the afternoon, I decided to take a big chance. I popped some microwave popcorn and approached them...walking to the side, not directly at them. I was hen yelping all the way and the toms were gobbling back. At one point, I was inside 12 yards.

You know when turkey season begins? Usually about 2 days after these guys disappear. Lol
