Cades Cove Turkey in the GSMNP

This turkey is safe from hunters because he is at Cades Cove,

in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

He did puff up a little for me, but not as much as I would have liked him to.

He finally decided he didn't want to show off for me at all.

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you and your families!!

Happy Thanksgiving

These photographs were taken in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park.

So they are very well protected.

They won't be on anybody's table today. Hope everybody is having a great Thanksgiving Day Celebration with your families.

Turkeys in Cades Cove Labor Day

No more snakes photos. On to the turkeys.

Yes, he is digging in what it looks like. Makes you think twice about eating wild turkey. Maybe the ones we buy in the store are fed better than this.

Look at that beard. Does anybody know what the knot is on his beak?
