Safe Landing
With iPhone at the ready I watched the young turkeys hurled themselves off our retaining wall. Even with continuous shooting activated I captured only one image of wings flapping. I must add iPhones aren’t the best camera choice for birders. Edited in Hipstamatic to look like a Chinese Screen painting.
The Hubby says it’s not A Jive Turkey but A Dive Turkey.
Love to hear what you think, Turkey Jokes welcomed.
