Very good. Where I live, the turkeys hang out, marching across the yard, making a great to-do of flying up into a tree, their babies toddling along after them. Even the chicks are homely. Though they're always popping in and out of the scenery, I've never had my camera at hand when they've shown up. It's not as if they're fast like hummingbirds, either. Yesterday, Thanksgiving Day, I stood in the kitchen working when I looked out the window and, yessiree, there they were, about twenty of them, lurching across the yard. Alive and uneaten.
