Wild Turkey Mom and Kid


We saw this mother and child exploring our backyard, in Redding, Connecticut just before Thanksgiving. The tyke turkey would lag behind it's mom, checking things out, then quickly run up to her, before further exploration. When one turns to that steaming bird on the Thanksgiving dining room table, It makes one hope that tom turkeys are less important to their kids than are the moms.
