Momma and Brood Crossing



Momma turkey and her 7 chicks crossing the road the other morning.  It was interesting to see how she slowed her pace to let her chicks cross ahead of her, while she brought up the rear.  It was like she was staring me down and giving me a stern non-verbal warning that she and her chicks were crossing and I'd just have to wait.

I thought it was a little late in the season to be rearing chicks, August 11.  They got some growing and learning to do to be ready for this coming cold weather.
