Wild Turkey

No, not the booze (which I have never had):  there was an honest to God wild turkey--a big one--walking in my yard yesterday (my yard is a meadow bordering the forest).  I have been hearing wild turkeys all week; I wonder if they are fanning out from their usual feeding places because of the drought.  Anyways, here is a picture of my visitor, the wild turkey of Felton, California.

The weird thing is, driving home today, I saw a female wild turkey cross the street (and yes, it got to the other side).
