Turkey Hen

Turkey Hen

Like the Roadrunners, the turkeys are having a pretty good year on Dry Creek, this one nesting I presume, but no toms that I’ve seen. 102° yesterday, I’m trying to get out a little earlier in the morning to feed the calves in the weaning pen, irrigate and pump water for the cows waiting to be sorted tomorrow morning. Kubota-time easing from pasture to pasture and back and forth across the creek, now diminished to a few holes of water that concentrates the ducks, killdeer, herons, redwings, etc. I packed the big lens this morning to catch this hen at breakfast about 7:30 a.m.
