This hen was very vigilant with her 5 poults as they nibbled their way through the yard. I took this shot from a lawn chair on my patio in my bathrobe this morning. It was either get dressed or grab the camera....
Oh yes, priorities always - grab the camera!! This is adorable - they don't look the least disturbed that you're out there in your bathrobe! What a marvelous find and such a cute scene.
@tabbycat We call them wild turkeys. We have large flocks walking through our lawns usually in the spring-- as many as 20 at a time. They are very careful with the babies and usually hide them in tall grass.
glad you grabbed the camera ... lol. i visited the spoonflower site and throughly enjoyed seeing your designs. wonderful work! thanks for sharing that link.
