Beak Up

I loved this turkey’s attitude. He was on the edge of his group, probably acting as a lookout against intruders, and so was my model.

I can definitely see the 2 of you had some chemistry going on that day….
I bet he gave you some of his best poses
Fun to find wildlife you can interact with out in nature.
Glad the 2 of you had some fun that day….
Next time any of us feel down…we’ll remember “Beak Up!”
