A morning turkey greeting

The turkeys are here! The turkeys are here!

There is a flock of turkeys that sometimes visits my office (yes, I do mean outside!), and they definitely made their presence known this morning. Strutting around on the grass, chasing each other, males showing the glory of full tails. There were two surprises this morning - the sheer number of turkeys trotting around the parking lot and the grass, and the fact that several of the females were perched in a tree. I have to admit that I've never seen them off of the ground before. Funny...

So tell me, why is it that I still haven't learned to always have a camera with me?
