Welcome! - It's time for some
GOOD FENCES hosted by Theresa from the Run-a-round Ranch Report.
Back in April I posted some deer that we had spotted in a farmers field.
(See this post) - We also happened to spot something else in the field. They were quite far off but we were able to determine as they got closer that they were wild turkeys.
This one I cropped so you could see them better.
What's weird about these shots is it looks like I'm standing on a mountain looking down on them. It was actually just a small hill looking down onto the farmers field below.
This is my favorite shot of them. You can see the fence line and the road and the turkeys.
Hope you've enjoyed these fences and turkeys today. - Have a great day.
Probably to get some food! Have a beautiful day!
ReplyDeleteFences and turkeys! Yay!! We get them around here once in awhile. I haven't seen any lately. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI thought you had a drone to take these shots
ReplyDeleteIt's always so exciting to see wild turkeys! And a bonus when they get close to a fence for good fences! Beautiful photos! Sweet hugs!
ReplyDeleteThey must be on a mission.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen a wild turkey! They must be big birds!
ReplyDeleteI thought you were actually flying over the fields! These are really unusual but fascinating fence views!
ReplyDeleteWow - what a view from nice and high up!
ReplyDeleteneat view! cool turkeys picking for their food, no doubt.
ReplyDeleteEven though it was a small hill, it made for a good angle/shot!
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed your photos very much. Sending hugs to you and yours. Take good care.
ReplyDeleteWe saw several wild turkeys when we visited in eastern Washington. Fences mean nothing to those creatures! :)
ReplyDeleteDearest Ida; Oh Yes, I can see the fence line and the road and the turkeys clearly with enlarged pictures♪ We don't have this kind of wide farmer's field in my area :-)
ReplyDeleteSending Lots of Love and Hugs from Japan to my Dear friend in America, xoxo Miyako*
I wondered where you were standing to take these, it does look like you were way up high
ReplyDeleteWe've been seeing a lot of sand hill cranes on our drives.
ReplyDeleteHello Ida I can see them and I like the view of your on the top shot with fence. Hug B
ReplyDeleteHello, neat shots of the turkeys. It does look like you are on a mountain looking down. Happy Friday, enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteGreat spotting those turkeys Ida. Fun shots! My sister-in-law had an experience recently. She was walking with a friend when they came across some turkeys. One of them came running at home and was very annoyed by their presence. They didn't hang around, my sister-in-law and her friend that is.
ReplyDeleteHello Ida!:) How I would like to see wild turkeys, even at a distance. Have a great weekend!:)
ReplyDeletebeautiful captures, you have a great eye in spotting them!!! i remember the deer, an amazing image!!!
ReplyDeleteHard to see the turkeys very creative photos of the field ~ Thanks for visiting ^_^
ReplyDeleteHappy Weekend to you ~ ^_^
I have also found that the camera can serve as a "spotting scope" by providing reliable magnification which far exceeds that of binoculars. So many times I may have dismissed some distant bird or animal (or artifact) as something else and only found the truth after getting home and enlarging its image on the PC.
ReplyDeleteLovely views of the field, they look so neat. Have a beautiful weekend!
ReplyDeleteI never heard about the turkey one:):)what I noticed about turkeys, is that they're mostly in groups. Thank you for responding to my question by email! Have a great weekend, and "see" you in a few days at SEASONS!
ReplyDeleteThose are great! I was wondering how you got them - they look like aerial photos! LOL!
ReplyDeleteGreat shots Ida! We have wild turkeys around here too. How have you been? How was your summer?
ReplyDeleteWe have some wild turkeys around here too. They used to come down the street every morning and wait with the kids at the bus stop. OF course I never got a picture back then of that event! SMH. I haven't seen them in awhile though, but you can always spot some in the fields just outside of the town.
ReplyDeleteA very good question!
ReplyDeleteWell done with your three photo's.
ReplyDeleteIt's different to see fences and turkeys ...
All the best Jan
Great perspective from the hilltop!
ReplyDeletenever seen any wild ones. :) But this is how birds mostly are photographed. They are always too far away.
ReplyDeleteThats a nice view point.
ReplyDeleteCheers - Stewart M - Melbourne
Interesting shots....the land looks very dry!
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday!
Ahhhhh...what a wonderful view you had, Ida...beautiful regardless of which direction you looked!...:)JP
ReplyDeleteGreat images. I thought you were in the air, perhaps in a balloon when I first looked at them!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful new week.
It does look like you have an almost aerial view! Enjoyed seeing the wild turkeys, fence, and fields.
ReplyDeleteLots of turkeys -- it does look like great country for them. They seem to be doing very well.
ReplyDeleteThat does have quite the unique perspective. Nice captures.
ReplyDeleteIt does appear you were at a higher elevation. My in-laws used to have wild turkeys visit their yard. I'd never seen them before. Love your header. How nicely the sparrows lined up for you. :D
ReplyDeleteThis happened to me today: I was driving in a rural area and suddenly something huge flew right in front of my windshield! I braked and avoided hitting it's feet and realized it was a wild turkey! Quite a surprising sight!
